'Peace Through Strength'

     ~ 'Peace Through Strength ~

    Not just a general’s mantra
      It speaks of internal fortitude

    Of the calm that the righteous achieve ~
      Those who can tame angry moods

Another insightful write from thy wise and prolific quill, Gershon. When I served at Hq Strategic Air Command at Offutt AFB NE, our motto was PEACE IS OUR PROFESSION, but if called upon, we had the strength to bomb people back to the stone age. Well done, sir! - Bob H
