Time for a little change from my normal Substack posts.

Because today is a special day for me.

Fifty-four years ago, I received a great gift from God — my beautiful wife, Sharon.

Back to Fort Sill

I didn’t know what I would be doing when I returned to Fort Sill.

When I arrived at the post, an officer told me I was going to work at the Combat Development Command. I had no idea what that even was.

Noah Webster (1758–1843) was an American lexicographer, educator, and one of the most influential shapers of early American culture. Best known for creating the first truly American dictionary, Webster believed that a strong republic required citizens grounded in moral truth.

A committed Christian, he saw the Bible—especially the New Testament—as essential for forming virtue, character, and civic responsibility in the rising generation. His work in education and language was driven by the conviction that a free nation could only endure if its people were instructed in both knowledge and biblical principles.

“Our citizens should early understand that the genuine source of correct republican principles is the Bible, particularly the New Testament, or the Christian religion... The Christian religion is the most important and one of the first things in which all children under a free government ought to be instructed.”Noah Webster in “History of the United States” published in 1832.

When I arrived back in the States, I found that my brother was handling all of Dad’s affairs. He took care of the bills Dad had left behind and the few belongings he had when he passed away.

It was a blessing having a brother who could shoulder those responsibilities. But that also meant there wasn’t much for me to do during this emergency leave.

Dr. Benjamin Rush (1746-1813) was an American physician, educator, political leader, and one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence. He is considered one of the Founding Fathers of the country.

Several years after the end of the War for Independence, Rush described what he believed was important in educating young people if the United States of America was to continue as a republican form of government giving freedom and liberty to the people.

“… the only foundation for a useful education in a republic is to be laid in Religion. Without this there can be no virtue, and without virtue there can be no liberty, and liberty is the object and life of all republican governments.… the religion I mean to recommend in this place is that of the New Testament.”Dr. Benjamin Rush, from “Of the Mode of Education Proper in a Republic”

Today in America over 49 million students attend public schools.

In how many of those schools do you think children are being given a foundation in the truths of the Bible?

Will our nation pay the price for excluding God from the lives of our children?

Think about it.

Over one hundred years ago, an American President wrote a proclamation encouraging the people to set aside a day thanking God for His blessings.

As we celebrate Thanksgiving today, how many Americans are taking time to thank God for all He has done for us?

Carl Linnaeus (1707–1778) changed the way we see the natural world. Known as the Father of Modern Taxonomy, he created the system of naming and classifying plants and animals that is still used in science today. The system developed by Linnaeus organized creation into categories that gave structure to the seemingly endless diversity of life.

But for Linnaeus, science was more than classification — it was worship. He believed that studying nature was following the footsteps of the Creator.

When I returned to Da Nang, I headed straight to my hootch to see if it was still there, or if someone else had claimed it, and then I would have to find a new home.
