The effects of a war torn soilder can have long lasting effects.

While in basic training, many of the young World War One recruits develop a spirit of self proud with the others and you feel comfortable that you have a great back up in time of the stress in confronting the enemy. Part of our brainwashing tactics are to raise enough ire in our own troops to not give a second thought of taking the life of another who is about to kill or harm us. The sense of taking another human life is not thought of until the job is over. That inner core of bad memories remains longer within more than we ever know. The first photo is of Warren "Dell" Jones from Nephi, Utah. He has been properly trained to fight Germans of the first World War. He is confidant and ready. That photo was sent back home for safe keeping. The second photo is of the war torn photo carried by Dell in the middle with his buddies on each side, the left one being "White" and the far right one being "Johnson". In Dell's letters back home, we see they are in Company C. 3rd Army and it appears MP Bn. with other numbers of AP9027AEF.  He carried that second photo with him for some time, and even when he returned home, it was a photo he kept hidden, not willing to share the stories of his deadly encounters. He did have close encounters attacking the occupation of Coblenz- later spelled Koblenz following the war. Traveling to and from Europe was quite the Lagoon ride as there were countless attempts to sink the soldier carrying boats. I pay tribute to my Uncle Dell. He never did talk much about what he had to do during war, and we only know he had to take the lives of others for our freedom. I never forgot that and hope I never do. Thanks Dell Jones, son of Wm. and Elizabeth and Tolley Jones.

I am afraid in this of world of Tyranny more of our dynamic young people will be called out to serve to fight the bullies of the world. I do appreciate the brave people who go forth to serve us, and the tears left for those they leave. Those tears speak more loud than ten thousand tongues, and show unspeakable love to us. Whoever you are, and when you are called- we praise you; honor you, and you shall be held in high esteem. In this world is not what we take up, but we give up, that makes us rich and who we are. Thanks for your service, now, it the past and for the future.
