THE WALL OF FACES

I was a child when you departed but I think of you often. I just want to let you know that I Love and Miss you more than ever.
Almighty God, Who art the Author of Liberty and the Champion of the oppressed, hear our prayer.
We the men of Special Forces, acknowledge our dependance upon Thee in the preservation of human freedom.
Go with us as we seek to defend the defenseless and to free the enslaved.
May we ever remember that our nation, whos motto is "In God We Trust," expects that we shall aquit ourselves with honor, that we may never bring shame upon our faith, our families, or our fellow men.
Grant us the wisdom from Thy mind, courage from Thine heart, strength from Thine arm, and protection by Thine hand.
It is for Thee that we do battle, and to Thee belongs the victor's crown.
For Thine is the kingdom, and the power and glory, forever, Amen
