en He was a soldier for this country his whole life. This is long overdue.

en This man gave up his life for all of us just as if he were in a war on foreign land. He was a soldier and was willing to give up his life in a war for us. He was also a soldier in another way - a civil rights soldier - and he did die for us all.

en You're going to see it with reintegration as well. Just because we recover a Soldier, it doesn't stop there; when that Soldier comes home and goes through his rear detachment the personnel recovery mechanism is still doing a bunch of things to help reintegrate that Soldier, ... To make sure that he's taken care of.

en By profession I am a soldier and take pride in that fact. But I am prouder -- infinitely prouder -- to be a father. A soldier destroys in order to build; the father only builds, never destroys. The one has the potentiality of death; the other embodies creation and life. And while the hordes of death are mighty, the battalions of life are mightier still. It is my hope that my son, when I am gone, will remember me not from the battle field but in the home repeating with him our simple daily prayer, ''Our Father Who Art in Heaven.''

en It was really a tough choice to pick the Lifetime Achievement Award winner. There were so many worthy candidates.

en OBSESSED, p.p. Vexed by an evil spirit, like the Gadarene swine and other critics. Obsession was once more common than it is now. Arasthus tells of a peasant who was occupied by a different devil for every day in the week, and on Sundays by two. They were frequently seen, always walking in his shadow, when he had one, but were finally driven away by the village notary, a holy man; but they took the peasant with them, for he vanished utterly. A devil thrown out of a woman by the Archbishop of Rheims ran through the trees, pursued by a hundred persons, until the open country was reached, where by a leap higher than a church spire he escaped into a bird. A chaplain in Cromwell's army exorcised a soldier's obsessing devil by throwing the soldier into the water, when the devil came to the surface. The soldier, unfortunately, did not.
