Feedback: Picture almost haunting in its own way To the editor, ColumbiaMagazine.com: Thank you for the memorial picture sure brings back memories and I want to thank your magazine for recognizing those soldiers. Vietnam was not a popluar war and a lot of those soldiers came home to some ugly statements and life changing disabilities and some did not come home at all. I appreciate anyone serving in our military yesterday or today. That picture was almost haunting in its own way.

Memorial Day Weekend: Remembering the sacrifice in Vietnam THE INFANTRYMAN IN VIETNAM Photos accompany this article To the editor, ColumbiaMagazine.com Mr Murley's nice photo made me wonder what the memories and impressions of the public were of Vietnam. I'm sure many have little or noidea of what that country was like in the late 60's. The two which accompany this note show another side of that conflict. One shows a couple of GI's on patrol in scrub brush country somewhere northwest of Saigon in early 1967, the temperature would have been very close 100 degrees. The second photo is of an unamed Adair Countian, a GI on a day patrol in a Rubber Plantation, inthe Loc Ninh area, which is probably around 75 miles North of Saigon and very close to Cambodia. When you view the picture, notice the red clay dirt on his pants. He probably had worn these pants for at least two weeks, as jungle fatigues were very seldom washed. You just wore them until they wore out. I hope we can all remember to say a prayer of thanks for those which gave their all, in all our wars and also for our troopsin the middle east at this time.

Rev. Joey N. Welsh: When life gives you a lemon, appreciate it ANOTHER ANGLE: the occasional musings of a Kentucky pastor. This timeless column appeared in the August 7, 2005 edition of the Munfordville, KY Hart County News-Herald and is reprinted with permission. By The Rev. Joey N. Welsh SO, WHEN LIFE GIVES YOU A LEMON, USE IT TO APPRECIATE THE MARVELS OF CREATION I have friends who tell that they have gained all sorts of insights into the wonders of God's creation through their travels. Some have told me that they came to a fresh realization of the vast intricacy of nature by visiting the Grand Canyon, the Canadian Rockies, Oregon's Crater Lake or the Hawaiian volcanoes. Others have told me that they have never experienced the power and beauty of changing seasons like they do when they see Callaway Gardens at the peak of the azaleas or Great Smoky Mountains in the fall. (I chuckle when I think that people believe they must travel hundreds of miles to see spring or fall color.

Tom Chaney: Of writers and their books. Gospel of Judas Book review: The Gospel of Judas. Viking Press, 2007 By Tom Chaney The discovery of the Gospel of Judas had been rumored for a decade before the archaeological find was made public by the National Geographic Society in 2006. Evidently the text is a Coptic translation from the original second-century Greek. Following the discovery near Al Minya in Middle Egypt in the early 1970's, the Gospel of Judas traveled from pillar to post ending up, somewhat damaged, in the hands of philologian Rodolphe Kasser and other scholars who restored the text.
