“November VETERAN…THOMAS H.”
This is THOMAS H. ALDRICH…and his WAR-Dog SHANE.
The above photos show that some of us…have received “gifts” from the Almighty – – that give us an empowering ways…that with animals…such as “Dog-Training” – – we can speak with …and understand…the ways and actions of the dog – – in this case … TOM can speak and train “SHANE” – – in such a way that they each know and understand…exactly what the other is thinking and which actions are expected…to accomplish the mission that this branch of service must realize…for the safety of all.
TOM had this talent as a very young boy…when he had his own dogs and and other small animals – – he would keep daily records of what the animal did…what it was fed… what specific treatments and procedures were taken…when – – with his checking for the correct knowledge of what was needed – – it was almost as if he was a doctor – – – taking care of animals and being sure that they were well taken care of.
When TOM left the SERVICE… he continued with the training of dogs…some that – – he raise and sold – – and others that…if you had a dog – – that was needing to be trained for a specific use – – then TOM… was the person to have… to do this training. There are some people who can actually talk to the dogs – – and get responses back – — as to what they need – – and what is happening to them…when… they have owners that are mistreating them.
We must always remember to pray for all of our young people…those that have talents – – and that the ALMIGHTY will help those that are going to serve … in the ARMED SERVICES – – – so they can do an excellent job – – since their talents are developed so early …making them… so naturally good – – – for all of us …that – – will receive the benefits.

“November VETERAN… LEE G. Aldrich
Fly your FLAG…today!
My son, LEE G. ALDRICH Jr.
When you are in the NAVY… you just LOVE to hear… “NOW HEAR THIS!” and also… “ALL HANDS ON DECK!”
I’m guessing that when you are on the “HIGH SEAS” – – everything is an emergency… because you will either sink or swim… unless you have the power of the ALMIGHTY…looking after you and guiding you all along the way…whatever your destination may be. – – BUT – – and let us never forget…to be protected …you must PRAY and ASK for PROTECTION… against your enemy…wherever she may lie???
Let us never forget, to remember all of our VETERANS… today…and FOREVER… – – as they are the earthly GUARDIANS…that were sent to protect AMERICA – – and our only HOPE is to keep AMERICA…strong for all generations to follow!

“November VETERAN…Thomas…”
Our FAMILY… has another VETERAN…my younger brother, Thomas F. McClarren…When you stop to think about the branch of service …that Tom selected to be in… at that time…I always wondered…why does a very smart man train to get into AIRPLANES… then decides to just jump out of a perfectly good AIRPLANE??? To me…just thinking about jumping out of an AIRPLANE…well…. I am a scared-y-cat! That is something …I could not do…not even for a million dollars!
In this month of NOVEMBER – -my main thoughts …are for all of us to remember our FAMILY and FRIENDS…especially those that have join the branch of service – – – that they selected to act as the “GUARDIANS” that seek to protect others…so that all of us can LIVE… in a peaceful society – – with LOVE and respect for all of our fellow men and women – – because…we need each of our neighbors in this world – – or else…why be here…if we cannot show LOVE and COMPASSION for our neighbors???
When…you are here on earth for awhile…like me – – you sometimes begin to wonder…why are we all on such a fast “rat-race” to no where??? There are a few important things to remember… LOVE of our neighbors…it will get you where you really want to be…because to show LOVE to others…you must first have LOVE in your “HEART”…because only that which you let live in your HEART…will show itself…and if…it is not LOVE…well. you know the opposite is hate…and Hate comes in so many ways…that sometimes the “HATE in the HEART”…will start to kill the owner of that sick HEART!
Let us all show that we have control of ourselves…and start with our own HEARTS…letting only LOVE…true LOVE enter in… so we can be winners with our neighbors. A PRAYER…said at all times…when we have negative thoughts…will surely turn our hearts into the HEART that we want to share with all of our LOVE ONES…especially… all those who gave their LIVES…so that we have so much NOW to be GRATEFUL…for – today and forever!

“November VETERAN…DENNY, Jr.”
In our FAMILY… DENNY, Jr – – is the second VETERAN for us to remember! DENNY Jr. – – is the one person that I feel has a “million dollar smile” – – and when you combine that with his red hair and freckles… and of course it does not hurt…to be IRISH – – you can see he has everything …that everybody would like to have!
This is the month to remember… all of our own FAMILY first … and then we need to include all those who have served in any one of the branches of service…and lest we forget…those who gave their LIVES…during all of the WARS – – that – all of our AMERICAN MEN and WOMEN gave… to make FREEDOM available for all of us – – – who are here NOW…to enjoy!
“THANKS” to all who will take the time to remember …this month is calling us to remember… that by giving THANKS…for all the LIVES that our young people gave – – and are still willing to give…for the LOVE of their COUNTRY…AMERICA – — – their HOME today and the HOME of their FAMILIES for tomorrow…forever!
Every PRAYER said today…will hopefully get the ALMIGHTY to remember that there is still a small rem anent of HIS people – – who believe that with HIS help…there will someday be an end to WAR… that we will finally find a better way to resolve our disputes!

“November…never forget our VETERANS!”
NOVEMBER is the month…to give THANKS and to be GRATEFUL… and just in case you ask…”WHY” — – because we have men and women to give up what they have most precious…their LIFE and YOUTH as a young person – – in the the SERVICE of PROTECTING …the LAND of our BIRTH…AMERICA!
It is a real crime…that – WE – PEOPLE of KNOWLEDGE – – have found that the only way to settle our disputes…is with WAR! Would it not be better… to have a WAR of Words… than to kill innocent young people – those who have no stake in this quarrel – – and all those families who just happen to be in the way…of where the quarreling counties decide to fight it out to the last standing man or women???
We all know that … that there will never be a “WORLD PEACE” – – so why not learn some other way to put your cards on the table – – to see which other way there would be …so that all can continue…living as long as possible…until the day that your CREATOR …decides to call you… HOME!
The above photo of my FATHER, Denny H. McClarren Sr. – was in his wallet – – till the day he died. It would have been nice if he would let one of us children of his – – have made a good copy – – one that could have been in a frame – – because…as you can see…something in the wallet…goes through another WAR…all on it’s own – – till the day it is rescued???
This month of November – – start letting “VETERANS” know how much you appreciate just exactly what they are doing…just so you can enjoy HOME …in FREEDOM…with all of your FAMILY…the same way that each VETERAN… would LOVE to be enjoying with their own FAMILY!
If nothing else…send PRAYERS… YES – – PRAYERS…that someday soon we can settle our differences… in ways that do not include using guns and physically …fighting… each other to the death!

“What Time is it???”
Last weekend…I heard you say that we were going to get an extra hour of sleep… so when will I know … that is …”HOW do I know …WHEN…I have received that extra HOUR of SLEEP???”
“Since… I am your favorite “CAT” – – and I always like to make plans…for what I will be doing…I wanted to know for sure… WHEN and WHERE will I find my extra hour… so… I can plan on doing something special???”
“Would you believe that at “Two o’clock in the morning on the 1st of November 2015″ – – you received your extra hour… and you slept….right through it!” – – “So…just for you little “SWEET -IE PIE” – – and so… that you will be prepared… for the next year 2016 – You will lose one hour on March 13. 2016 at 2:00 a.m. – – – and you will get your extra hour back… on November 6th, 2016 and at 2:00 a.m. – – and… NOW you know and if you are smart …you will mark your calendar ….and if you are planning to stay out all night – – just let me know your intentions – – – and everybody will have all kinds of extra FUN!”
