PILOT RESCUED: GOD BLESS OUR MILITARY I flew the helicopter gunship in Viet Nam as a US Marine Pilot. I went down three times. I should not be here today. The most truly spiritual part of being a Marine pilot was knowing my fellow pilots would not leave a fellow pilot to be captured or die. That is why the motto of all Marines is “Semper Fi.” Forever Faithful. We will not leave you behind. A friend of mine was shot down and trapped behind Viet Cong line’s . He was rescued three weeks later. Today he says “I’m alive today….because dead men kept fighting.” That is why the two words “Semper Fi” are spiritual words. They are words the come from the souls of men and woman who fight and are willing to give their lives, for fellow soldiers and for our freedom. Today, I do my best to only do business with men and women who live by GODS words “Semper Fidelis.” Such men and woman are rare and priceless. To do business with such people….first I need to be one of them. May you be one of them…too.
