…There will always be an 82d

Airborne Division, because it lives

in the hearts of men. And somewhere

young men will dare the challenge

to “Stand Up and Hook Up” and know

that moment of pride and strength

which is its reward.

Greater love

Hath no man than this,

That a man lay down his

Life for his friends.

John 15:13
