“Do You Fear Falling?”

img044

This is Thomas F. McClarren –  82nd Airborne Division – U.S. Army – the last of the McClarren Family  that I have pictures of that  did  join and serve  and  were “LUCKY” to return home! To be a “Paratrooper” – I’ll just bet that the question you are most asked would be, –  “How can you jump out of a perfectly  fine flying airplane – are you not afraid of falling and getting hurt?” — Tom is the one in our  “FAMILY” –  that would be asking someone downstairs something  –  and before you could turn to answer  – there he was – –  at the foot of the stairs? Never could figure what there was about  “TOM”  –  that caused him to fall out windows and down stairs –   and never got hurt doing so?   I’m guessing the “GOOD LORD” was saving  “TOM” for the big jump of his  “LIFE”  out of “AIR-PLANES!”

This Memorial weekend and all this coming week –  let me send this Salute   – to all our ARMED FORCES – a prayer  to Almighty Yahweh – to bless and protect our young men and women  – until they can return home to their “LOVED” ones –  “Send Love  to all our Loved ones who are making great sacrifices!”
