Thanks for that info, Matt.

I am no longer recognized yet I am entitled to a military burial.

I'm gonna look for my old dog tags with its P38 can opener still on them.

The nefarious Trumpf junta creates all of these messes that are both costly and harmful.

Not intrusive to a fellow Soldier, Matt.

My symbol is the atom.

I'll most likely choose an Irish wake with lots of booze and laughs and then be cremated.

I hope I have some fun at the wake, though.

Hi Marine

SNAFU at the Pentagon. "Situation Normal, All F***ed Up"

BTW: USMC aviation got it's start on little Puerto Rico before WW1.

"No Rel Pref" is how the US Amy issued my dog tags last century.

TYPO fixed: "No Rel Pref" is how the US Army issued my dog tags last century.

*** Utah Republican Senators Rage That DOW Doesn't Regard Mormons as Christians ***

"The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is included as a religious category on the updated list. But the faith was not included in the list of faiths labeled "Christian."

Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT) asked "Can anyone tell me why The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints was left out of the list of Christian churches?"

Sen. John Curtis (R-UT) called the characterization "unacceptable."

In NYC I met a visiting Rosicrucian from France last century. He was a nice guy. I didn't buy what what he was selling, and they have their interesting beliefs, occult knowledge, secret handshakes, and shibboleths, like the Freemasons.

But the Rosicrucians would claim without proof many historic figures were adherents to their order, undermining their legitimacy.

A few years ago a gentleman overheard me discussing philosophy at a restaurant. He was polite and clearing his throat he asked me to speak at his next "UU" meeting.

I declined his offer and when I got home I looked them up. The UU folks seem to have good intentions and heck-- we don't see them associated with pedophiles or pederasts like we do with phony Christians.
