Tactical Beard Owners Club
Monday, December 12th, 2011Facebook members who like to shoot guns and sport awesome facial hair take heart. There is finally a group for you. The Tactical Beard Owners Club is an invite only group but it is THE place to be if you a rocking a beard. Although many members are German, most communications are in English. They’ve even developed their first run of commemorative patches with different versions for different beard colors.
From the group:
“The “Tactical Beard”: No matter if it is “Face Kevlar” or a “Combat Beard”, a beard seperates boys from men: the more testosterone the more beard will grow and the more he puts up in a fight. True men let grow their beard to let the dust from foreign countries settle in it. A man with beard will be respected by his battle buddies and will be feared by his enemies.“
A Date Which Will Live in Infamy
Wednesday, December 7th, 2011
While today is the 70th anniversary of the Japanese attack on the US fleet at Pearl Harbor, it’s not hard for some to look at that day as ancient history and make the argument that by bringing it up every year, it perpetuates long held grudges. And to them I say, “Those who ignore history are doomed to repeat it.” Just consider my generation’s Pearl Harbor; the 9/11 attacks. Once again, America was the victim of a surprise attack that shocked the world. But, just like after Pearl Harbor, when America was attacked on 9/11 her citizens banded together and dealt with her aggressors.
So here is my salute to America’s Greatest Generation and more so to those who served in the military during the inter-war years. That was true dedication. Thank you for showing us the way. May we always follow your example. And, a moment of silence for the 2402 Americans who were lost on that day and the hundreds more who were wounded in service to this great Nation.
President Roosevelt called today, “A date which will live in infamy.” May we never forget it.

Honour House Society
Friday, December 2nd, 2011Just like here in the US, when Canadian troops and first responders are wounded, their treatment is regularly far from their hometowns. This separation from family takes an emotional toll and all too often family members come to stay closer to their wounded loved ones. This brings on an entirely different burden; financial. Honour House is a Canadian effort to provide a temporary home for families of Canadian Forces and first responders while members of these organizations are receiving medical care in the Metro Vancouver area.
Please review their site and consider supporting their efforts. www.honourhouse.ca
