“Have to DO… SOMETHING”
“I know exactly what you are going to say…”Put that cigarette OUT!” “Like everyone here – – some of these guys have never smoked before – – but since we are here, in KOREA – – this “COLD” weather could kill us, too!” “So…what… else did you have on your mind… to tell me to do – – out here in this freezing COLD – – and if you have a better suggestion – – I just might do that!”
“HOW’s” this for a change of “DUTY” – – some of us guys found some small children – – that we thought would like some of our AMERICAN Chocolate CANDY – – and also some small gifts – – that we thought – – that they might like – – since we are sharing Christmas gifts with each other – – why not share with the little children – – they will remember this – – more so than any treat that they will receive at this age!”
“I’m standing on the right side of this PHOTO – – would you believe – – I took my glasses off – – and then – – did not look up – – wanted to look GOOD for the PHOTO!”
“NOW that I look at this PHOTO – – can hardly tell that – – that is me on the right side – – just looking at the small child in my arms and she is so interested in all that we are planning to do for all of the children.”
“Here’s hoping that all of the children – – around the world have a very BLESSED and HAPPY CHRISTMAS – – with their FAMILY and FRIENDS!”
