SAR Eagle Chapter Newsletter- During the Dark out

Month We are descendants of Veterans of the Revolutionary War. Let us not forget our obligations to them that, gave us a constiutituion, a

bill of rights, and anation of free mem

It is easy to forget, easy to not stand up for their efforts, and their accomplishmeents. When in the course of generations we do not

defend their achievements, we will lose our constitution, and the principles of liberty and democracy within a republic.

-

The Eagle takes the thermals for a ride- peace or war, or as Arstitle said it “ War is the making for Peace, while Plato said, ‘ only the

dead shall know war not more.

Let us treasure the peace we have and not shirk from defending it. Defense is one of man’s most noble concepts. Let us not forget or

not try.

Congraulation John Huegel, with VP CASSAr Jame Foscyk, President Jerry Sayer, and former Registrar Frank Kebelman.

THE EAGLE NEWSLETTER IS PUBLISHED MONTHLY AND IS VERY INFORMATIVE, AS FOLLOWS:

The American Revolution (1775-83) is also recognized as the American Revolutionary War and the United States. War of

Independence. The conflict arose from growing tensions between residents of Great Britain’s 13 North American colonies and the

colonial government, which represented the British crown. Skirmishes between British troops and colonial militiamen in Lexington

and Concord in April 1775 kicked off the armed conflict, and by the following summer, the rebels were waging a full-scale war for

their independence. France entered the American Revolution on the side of the colonists in 1778, turning what had essentially been a

civil war into an international conflict. After French assistance helped the Continental Army force the British surrender at Yorktown,

Virginia, in 1781, the Americans had effectively won their independence, though fighting would not formally end until 1783.

American Patriot: Freedom Rock- In Rural Iowa

Approx. 1.5 mile south of Interstate 80 on Highway 25 (exit 86); Approx. 37 miles (59 km) west of

Des Moines, Iowa.; North of Greenfield, Iowa in Adair County

It is an inspiration to anyone who feels the surge of pride when the American Flag is raised, or the

National Anthem plays for one of our Olympians on the medal stand.

Every year, for the last five years, a talented artist, Ray (Bubba) Sorensen II, has done a Memorial Day tribute to our servicemen and

servicewomen, both past and present, with a stirring tableau painted on a large granite boulder which stands next to Highway 25. The

huge granite boulder came out the nearby Schillberg Rock Quarry and it weighs 56 ton (50.8Mg) and is

12 ft (3.7m) high.

"I love my country and I do it out of respect for the veterans. It's my way of thanking those who have

protected the freedoms I enjoy today. God bless the USA," says Sorensen.

For years this boulder was known as "the graffiti rock" and was decorated for high school rivalries,

love interests, etc. Since the Memorial Day paintings began, the "rock" has remained with the annual

tribute intact, until the artist himself paints over it, in preparation for the next year's tribute. The rock

has been "defaced" once since Bubba has started this project, causing a local stir. The vandal, got a

punch in the face from a Vietnam War veteran for his trouble, and vandalism has never again been a

problem.

Sorensen, who is 24 years old and from Greenfield, Iowa, draws a sketch of his idea on paper and then draws the design by free hand

onto the rock. This takes him anywhere from one to three weeks to paint. He says he is interested in military history and gets his ideas

from books, movies, previous artwork and images by other artists. Bubba has been commissioned to paint a number of public murals

including one at the birthplace of Henry A Wallace..

Visitors from every state and many foreign nations have come to view the rock. It was featured last 4th of July on the nationally

televised Boston Pops Concert, as well as on many Network news presentations.

If you are anywhere close, you shouldn't miss the opportunity to see what is truly an American treasure.

President James Monroe. - Our 5TH PRESIDENT

James Monroe was the last of the Founding Fathers to become President. He was the last President to not have political parties.

Wow! This is what Washington wanted, a government without political parties. A country ruled not by Politics, Dictators, or

Kings. An amazing American first.

James Monroe

President James Monroe was the 5th President of the United States between 1817 and 1825. He was the last president of the Virginia

dynasty. Does that spel dy nasty? No, the opposite, good feelings.

During the Revolutionary war he fought with distinction under Washington at the Battle of Brandywine, Germantown. He was severly

hurt at Trentonsuffering a near fatal wound to his should.er

In a charge against an enemy canon. He cuperatored and at the end of the war was left with the rank of Major., but later got

recommissioned as a Colonel. After the war he studied law, taking Thomas Jefferson as a Mentor.

He was tutored under Thomas Jefferson. In 1794 he was appointed US minster to France under Washington. In 1799, James Monroe

and his family moved into Highland, their Albemarle "cabin castle," adjacent to Thomas Jefferson's Monticello. Jefferson, Monroe's

teacher and close friend, had previously urged him to move to the area to create a "society to our taste. Jefferson sent him to Francein

1803 to deal with the Lousian Purchase.

In the War of 1812, when the secretary of war resigned under President Madison, he took over this post. He sent a message to

Madison that British were coming toward Washington. After British burnt the city, Monroe returned to take up its defenses. Defense is

one of Man’s most noble concepts.

Monore’s popularity rose after the war, due to his tireless service to the Madison cabinet. He toured Massachuesettes in 1817. And

replied to and address of the MA Society of the Cincinnati,, an organization of surviving Revolutionary Soldiers.

His was relatively easy presidentcy (1817-1825). He viritually had No wars (e.g. revolution or war of 1812). He set the policy of the

Monroe doctrine.

As President he bought Florida from Spain. His second term went uncontested; the 1st time since George Washington. His political values were similar to Washington, wating a country without parties, with leaders serving the country. James Monroe's administration was known as the

"Era of Good Feelings. When has the country had this for eight years??? He was the last officer from the Revolutionary Warand a subbsequent Secretary of War during the War of 1812. An Consultant Bio As a Consultant, I continue to work at 75 years of age, and make breakthroughs and have goals. I was born in a rural town in Western New York,worked on farms, delievered newslpapers, and left for a small University, Park University in the Mid West, which supports military personeel hroughout the united state at numerous ports. After graduation I trained in the Peace Corps and later

in the Military. But At the end of my military service, a woman at the end of a departure line, asked me if I would like to know what my

I Q was, I said yes, and to my amazement I had a very high IQ. Previously I always though most people were smarter than I ( I would

have thought all of you smarter than I) , but I worked hard to do what they did. So After the military I graduated with a 2nd degree, and

went to a research laboratory because a PhD couldn’t do experiments successfuly. I worked on subcontracts to Spacecraft

decontamination and on military easibility of sterilizers in field aarmy hospitals, as well as synergists for sterilization processing.

Subsequently I worked for medical device and pharmaceutical companies, as well as for myself (start up). In Eli Lilly I became known

as the Idea Man, having more ideas than any individual or teams that were aaccepted by its steering committecontinue. . While I have

never had any patents I was told by corporate, that they didn’t want the competition to know these idean and processes. I won the

Winner’s Circle, the highest award give typically to teams, I received it as an individual- I saved a plant. I continue to consult with

medical device start ups and pharmaceutical companies, and have written several chapters in books and three book in my area of

expertise. I continue to be on the Editorial Advisory board (EAB) of a medical device and diagnostic magazine. But I am most proud

of keeping my wife alive for 20 years when she was only suppose to go only 15 years, and having two great kids, and seven

grandchildren.

While I am a microbiologist, I found through family history that I had two grand uncles who were microbiologists, and my son is a

microbiologist. And While I have proven 30 patriots in the revolutionary war, I am most proud to have found several pariots in my

mother’s line, because she was orphaned, and never knew of her heritage, but helped to foster 35 kids in her life time..

THANKS Bill Bishop for providing us your Military Men in your family.

Attached is a copy of the story on the D-Day Memorial and photos provided by Bill Bishop

The National D-Day Memorial is a war memorial located in Bedford, Virginia. It serves as the national memorial for American D-

Day veterans. However, its scope is international in that it states, "In Tribute to the valor, fidelity and sacrifice of Allied Forces on D-

Day, June 6, 1944" and commends all Allied Armed Forces during the D-Day invasion of Normandy, France on June 6, 1944 during

World War II.[1]

The memorial, bordering the Blue Ridge Mountains in southwestern Virginia, is an area of over 50 acres (200,000 m2) that overlooks

the town of Bedford. It officially opened on June 6, 2001 with 15,000 people present, one of whom was then-President George W.

Bush.[2] About 60,000 people have visited the memorial each year. Of those, more than half are from outside of Virginia.

The "Bedford Boys" and the Location of the Memorial

Thirty-four Virginia National Guard soldiers from the town of Bedford were part of D-Day. Nineteen of them were killed during the

first day of the invasion, and four more died during the rest of the Normandy campaign. The town and the "Bedford Boys" had

proportionately suffered the greatest losses of the campaign, thus inspiring the United States Congress to establish the D-Day

memorial in Bedford.[3][4]

The Bedford Boys included two sets of brother: twins Roy and Ray Stevens, with Ray killed during the landing while Roy survived,

and Bedford and Raymond Hoback, both killed.[5] The losses by the soldiers from Bedford were chronicled in the best-selling book

The Bedford Boys by Alex Kershaw, and helped inspire the movie Saving Private Ryan.[6] The movie's director, Steven Spielberg,

helped fund the memorial, including funding for the creation of the Arnold M. Spielberg Theater, in honor of his father, a World War

II veteran.

The National D-Day Memorial Foundation

The National D-Day Memorial Foundation is a non-profit 501(c)(3)organization that had its beginnings as a small committee in 1988

with the prospect of building a memorial to dedicate the sacrifices made by the Allied Forces on D-Day. The idea had been looked at,

but support for its completion did not exist prior to the fiftieth anniversary of the invasion in 1994.[8]

Presently, the foundation is headquartered in Bedford. After 8 months of 2 co-presidents, In May of 2013, April Cheek-Messier was

named the president of The National D-Day Memorial Foundation. It charges itself with expanding the memorial, such as when it

listed on plaques the name of every one of the 4,413 Allied soldiers who died in the invasion, the most complete list of its kind

anywhere in the world. The memorial is currently trying to one better itself with its attempt to compile a list of every service member

that participated in Operations Overlord and Neptune (Overlord was the code name of actual invasion whereas Neptune was code for

getting the troops across the English Channel for the invasion).[9] The organization also involves itself in assisting veterans and their

families such as undertaking the search for family members of soldiers whose personal belongings have been found after years of

being lost.[

Fundraising and Building the Memorial

Fundraising and building the memorial took approximately seven years of planning and approximately $25 million to complete. In

1994, the town of Bedford donated 11 acres (45,000 m2) of land to the memorial. The foundation purchased additional acreage,

bringing the total size of the memorial to 50+ acres. In 1997, the foundation received a one million dollar donation from Charles

Schulz, who, with his wife, volunteered to head a fundraising campaign for the memorial.[11]

According to the National D-Day Memorial Foundation, the memorial is a continuum of three distinct plazas which follow on a time

line. The first plaza, Reynold's Garden, symbolizes the planning and preparation activities for the invasion through the execution of

the order for the invasion. It is in the shape of the Supreme Headquarters Allied Expeditionary Force combat patch. The second level,

Gray Plaza, reflects the landing and fighting stages of the invasion. It includes what is called the invasion pool with beach obstacles in

the water, sculptures of soldiers struggling ashore, and a representation of the Higgins craft used for the invasion. This section

includes intermittent jets of water spurting from the pool replicating the sights and sounds of sporadic gunfire. The names of the

United States' losses appear on the west necrology wall of the central plaza, the rest of the Allies' losses on the east necrology wall. In

the spirit of Dwight D. Eisenhower's one-team command philosophy for the AEF, no other distinctions are made.[1] The last and

uppermost plaza, Estes Plaza, celebrates victory and includes the Overlord Arch and the twelve flags of those Allied nations that

served in the Allied Expeditionary Force. The Overlord Arch represents the victory of Operation Overlord and bears the invasion date

of June 6, 1944 in its height at 44 feet (13 m) and 6 inches (150 mm) tall.

Tourism

The memorial is open Monday through Sunday 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM. During the months of January and February and part of March,

the invasion pool is drained for maintenance. In addition to the memorial's static displays, on several weekends throughout the year,

the memorial hosts events relating to remembering World War II. Examples of such events have included a weekend long

encampment of World War II re-enactors and a World War II-style religious mass in addition to Memorial, Veteran's, and D-Day

activities that occur annually
