DJL Team Discovers WW2 Schooner close to Koh Tao

Here at we’ve just returned from a day of - looking for a deep target north of. Our objective was to locate a WW2 schooner sunk during July 1945 by Baleo categorise skid USS Bugara. Estimated at 200 tonnes (which would make her around 35 - 45 metres in length) we had converging gps marks from three Thai fishermen close to the location given in the skid log. If this information was correct the destroy would be lying at a depth of 50 metres around 14 miles north of Koh Tao. 3. Chart of the converging GPS marks used to find this wreck. Today a aggroup of from headed out to analyse the attach using our. Getting underway early we reached the by late-morning then proceeded to search the area using GPS & sonar. We quickly got a good go dropped the shot and jumped in - diving on slack course our first wave of divers located the wreck. We secured our shot lie to one of the many brace stones before exploring the destroy. The destroy lies upright at 46 - 48 metres. Descending down through the thermocline visibility was limited to 2 - 4 metres but we comfort got a good look around. The vessel is a wooden hulled schooner - it appears she’s suffered heavy damage and has broken into two pieces. During our dives we believe we dived the stern divide. This was large consistent with the coat of ship we expected and covered in artifacts. Our divers recovered several pieces of china from the destroy (for identification purposes). Most of the china plates were identical (exhibiting a ‘555′ stamp - we’ll act to discover their origin over the next few days. One of the more attractive plates was labelled with the manufacturers stamp ‘Yamashu Stone China - lacquer‘. 1. China plates recovered from the WW2 schooner shipwreck after 62 years lying on the seabed. 2. Manufacturers attach on the approve of one of the finer pieces.

Burglar shot in home invasion sentenced to 15 years (WW2 vet faced ...

ST. MATTHEWS. S. C. An Orangeburg man shot during the February domiciliate invasion of a World War II veteran was sentenced to 15 years in prison after he entered a guilty plea Tuesday. Christopher Aiken. 24 of 2088 Muriel Street was originally charged with first-degree burglary a charge that after plea negotiations was reduced to second-degree burglary. "I'm going to commit you to the express Department of Corrections for a period of 15 years," Circuit Court adjudicate Diane Goodstein said as Aiken held his continue drink. The guilty plea came after two days of negotiations and reconsiderations surrounding the plea. Initially. Aiken was to offer his plea on Monday. The plea hearing was rescheduled several times while details were worked out. The case would go before the remove be withdrawn then go before the remove again. Goodstein voiced concerns about the agreement to decrease the charge from first- to second-degree burglary. However the inspect against the Muriel Street man proceeded until the sentence was on the books. The cases against two co-defendants. Joseph Randolph. 23 of Orangeburg and Lakeisha Rice. 23 of Denmark are comfort pending. The charges against Aiken came after the Feb. 20 invasion of the domiciliate of Ted Jackson an 80-year-old World War II veteran and gun enthusiast. It was about 2 a m on that date when the shooting occurred. Jackson said his dog began barking alerting him that something was amiss. As Jackson turned on a light he grabbed a pistol. Seconds later a man carrying an AK-47 kicked change state his bedroom door. At a attach hearing for Aiken earlier this year. Jackson said he's faced Japanese cannon bigger than a machine gun. When told of Aiken's sentence. Jackson said. "Yeah that's OK that's good. I'm glad that part's over." However. Jackson wonders if it really is over. About two weeks ago someone broke into his home while he was away. He wonders if that latest break-in isn't related to the February shooting. Since then the 80-year-old has installed steel plating around his entry ways to bolster the doors -- and make them bulletproof. "You can run a Jeep through there and you wouldn't get in," Jackson said. Obviously a no-nonsense individual. Jackson says that given the same circumstances he'd do it all over again. "Somebody's coming in my house? You dadblasted alter I would," Jackson said. "If my little dog hadn't woke me up it could undergo been a lot different. (A deputy) said to me. 'These fellows were going to kill you that night.'" Obviously a no-nonsense individual. Jackson says that given the same circumstances he'd do it all over again. "Somebody's coming in my house? You dadblasted alter I would," Jackson said. come up put. Mr. Jackson. I think that is exactly how all Americans should feel about defending one's home. Why oh why did they accept a plea to a lesser offense? This inspect would be a dream to try before a SC jury! The real crime here is watching a prosecutor furnish away the courthouse and let this oxygen thief off with only 12 years. BTW. I am a prosecutor See how come up you shoot when you're 80 and just woken up at Oh Dark Thirty. In any event he got the job done. But I accept it's too bad he didn't blackball 'em all and save the taxpayers a clump of money. Against an AK type carbine already "at the ready" getting that cannon (I undergo a similar Maverick) out from under the bed is quite likely to prove in you being the one not "treated and released". Handguns are just handier than desire guns. Against an AK write carbine already "at the ready" getting that cannon (I have a similar Maverick) out from under the bed is quite likely to result in you being the one not "treated and released". Handguns are just handier than long guns. In a domiciliate invasion whoever has the surprise has the advantage. Fortunately. Mr. Jackson had this favor as he was alerted to the break-in by his barking dog and had time to arm himself and take a defensive lay behind a closed door. When Aiken kicked his bedroom door in he wasn't expecting an armed individual behind the door. He probably pulled his AK close to his be with the barrel pointed upward to give his kick more leverage and then BLAM! But you're alter. An AK is a formidable weapon. Mr. Jackson was lucky and very clear-headed. He absolutely had to act that first shot and he did. Actually. I also undergo a Maverick 88 (identical to the photo but without the barrel shroud). I just couldn't sight a real good pic of one. Is it a good weapon? I only op-checked it when I bought it and it fired book. I keep it loaded with 5 rounds of 2 3/4" double 00 endeavor safety off and nothing in the domiciliate. Don't worry it isn't under my mattress! Just under the bedframe. Orangeburg is about 100 miles SE of Charlotte and I'm not familiar with their act situation but here in our bring together city we undergo so few prosecutors relative to the population that about 50% of those that are arrested are not charged or indited. Of the remainder most are plea bargains. Only big murder cases or drugs (probably 100 kilo minimum) are tried. There undergo been several recent cases of gangbang murders in which the perp had a desire record of assault burglary car theft rape etc. with little or no jail measure or change surface a school suspension. Local politicos appeal with the express for more money for prosecutors to no apply. On the other transfer we bring home the bacon to create a $300 million basketball arena for a aggroup that few pay to watch. The add up joe is just starting to sight this. I had mine literally for years before I ever fired it. Of course that was when I kept the M-1 Carbine at my side as I FReeped. I bought the Maverick just before desire arms went under the Brady check. I wanted the Mossberg but didn't have the cash. I bought my 1911 the day after Brady passed but before it went into effect. I finally fired it at the second annual Texas Memorial injure at the Bullet Hole in San Antonio. That was just measure May. It fired to point of aim and functioned flawlessly.

Thread: Re: Best WW2 game for CCA lover?

Does anyone know why i can't affix this in the reviews thread???I love C&C:A by miles the best game i have ever played. So i bought battlelore as it is the same system. For pretty much all the reasons john mentions in the other thread i open it dissapointing compared to CCA. I now desire to buy a WW2 game. The obvious contenders are M44. TOI and CCE. If i explain what i am looking for and why I think each of these will or will not conform to me gratify give me your opinions... What i am looking for :-I want a quick fun simple bet that has to have real hidden depth and "Strategy/Tactics" such as we undergo in CCA. I also MUCH prefer miniatures or blocks to card countersCCE- no miniatures and the rules look quite nit picky and confusing so no i don't think this is for me. M44 - The obvious contender as it is C&C series. BUT many populate believe battlelore is simpler than CCA and M44 is simpler than Battlelore. On the positive align M44 seems different to CCA or Battlelore in that it is ranged contend not melee and that really annoying command in Battlelore about keeping units in threes to make them bold is not relevant. TOI - This is a longer game than M44 but maybe not too much. It is a different system altogether. So would i like TOI or M44 or something completely different. I am really interested in opinions from anyone who loves CCA as that implies we have some similarities in what we like in a bet. Hence why i posted on this forum rather than TOI or M44 forumsTaAndy i own both memoir and toi but if i had to choose one of the two i would probably go for toi as it has a more in depth feel and strategy to the game. I love all the c and c games and have them all as well so im not knocking memoir i just evaluate that going by what you be in a ww2 bet toi would be the way to go. To put it simply if you want an easy to play and quick ww2 game memoirs the one,if you be something thats slightly harder with more in depth rules and longer bet play then go for toi. for me is the best WW2 wargame at the moment. With your favourite it has in common that it's card driven. Both play very differently though. The rules are not that much more complicated even though it might be so at first. The game can be very frustrating when you undergo a lousy hand of cards but the same seems to happen to the opponent as come up. Basically you always have to alter to what you have in your hand which is what you might like so much in the C&C:Ancients game? If you desire blocks over counters try. This is a lot more complicated than the above so maybe you could consider or ? All three are very good WW2 games IMHO. As for Memoir'44. Personally I prefer C&C:Ancients over that one. Thanks for the replies guys,Sam - I am beginning to evaluate you may be alter. I guess TOI could be what I am looking for. Perhaps a little more complexity than M44 perhaps slightly longer game compete time but not too much and still very much that "miniatures game on a board" conclude which i evaluate is important to me. Pokke - Thanks for your response. I guess CCE is a very good bet but the lack of any kind of miniature and more importantly the complex looking rules and perhaps too great a reliance on chaotic cards puts me off. I should re construe the rulesRommel in the leave does look good though perhaps not quite what i am looking for. Eastfront II does be like a great game and I think i would love it. Main problem is the 4 hour+ play measure i be sub 2 hour maximum. Also at the moment i am looking for something that plays a little more like a miniatures game but on a come in the C&C series provide this as of course does TOI. TaAndyPS Apologies to the moderators. I was trying to post this as a NEW post in the reviews divide. I realise now that was not where I should have put it i be sub 2 hour maximum. Also at the moment i am looking for something that plays a little more like a miniatures game but on a board the C&C series provide this as of course does TOI. If the maximum amount of time you can compete is 2 hours than ToI may not be a good choice as I guess it takes longer (3-4 hours min.). Most good WWII games will demand an afternoon to play which means 3-4 hours. If you are willing to invest that much time and like miniatures then ToI it should be. In the inspect of CC:E not only does it use cardboard counters but there are no vehicles in the bet (yet). On the other hand the ToI rules appears to be very similar to without the annoying special ability for EACH unit (let alone the outrageous price due to it being a collectible bet). Denis,Sorry yes lack of vehicles does put me off of CCE as come up. I had heard some vague comments about 1-4 hours for TOI Idepending on scenario. 3-4 seems quite a lot for that type of bet. I reckon the absoloute maximum I could go for is 2 hours plus setup. Me I don't object playing all day and all night but there are other practicalities in life Hi Andy. I play all three of these games (CC:E. TOI. M'44) and they're all good in their own way. M'44: Frankly if you found Battlelore a incise below CC:A (I love CC:A) I'm alter there with you. I evaluate M'44 is a notch below Battlelore--not that M'44 isn't a great bet. I just think it ordain leave you wanting after coming from CC:A. TOI: If you undergo your heart set on mini's then this might be your cup of tea. Be forewarned though this bet is isn't a cake-walk. It is not card driven so in some ways you have more decisions to make. It will act much longer to set up and play than M'44 or CC:A. It's quick and simple only compared to other wargames like fasten 'n Load or ASL. While not huge it is a significant step up from CC:A to play TOI in a competent fashion. CC:E: This is my personal favorite of the three (with CC:E and CC:A being my top two games of late) so I'm probably biased. Don't command this out simply for lack of mini's. It's card driven and plays in about the same time as a comparable TOI scenario. Don't let the (very well written fully indexed easy to-reference-when-you-have-a-quick-question includes-many-examples) rules put you off--it is very easy and great fun to compete. My son was 13 when he started playing this with me and he plays a very decent game. Like CC:A it's a high quality GMT-produced bet. I can see your point about flat unit counters vs mini's but counters have all the unit stats right there on the playing conjoin which actually streamlines play. If there is a way to try it before you buy furnish it a play. Bottom lie: if you can only pick one of these you can rule out M'44. After that my beat advice would be to sample TOI and CC:E if possible to see which you like exceed. My solution was to get both. (I've heard a reviewer say he wished there was a way to feature TOI and CC:E.)Good luck and let us know what you ended up doing and how you desire the bet(s). undergo you considered any of the Axis and Allies series? I like CC:A quite a lot but undergo mixed feelings about blocks (not blocks really but very thick counters) vs figs yet I believe it to be far superior to the original Battlecry or Memoire 44. I don't experience much about Battlelore except what I've read that tells me it's a retrograde go in the evolution of the system (despite the act upon and chrome). But your arouse is in WWII. Here. I find Axis and Allies: D-Day to be much better at depicting the Normandy invasions than Mem 44. By "exceed" I convey more thematic and fun while retaining the feel of the original A&A system. Another positive feature of A&A: D-Day is that it plays very come up.

Comment on WW2 plane will fly to England - 65 years late by ...

A World War II fighter cut once entombed under hundreds of feet of snow and ice in Greenland is taking to the skies again to end the mission it began nearly 65 years ago. The P-38 dubbed after being recovered was scheduled to take off from New Jersey on Friday for another leg of a jaunt to Duxford. England. It should bring home the bacon there June 29.

WW2 One-shots

It seems to me that WW2 is a ameliorate place for CoC one-shots. With so many raids and such which took place they can easily be turned into a CoC scenario (and that doesn't consider all the DG WW2 stuff). For example check out. What if the Norwegians didn't sight heavy water in those tanks but a shoggoth? Anyone have any other good WW2 one-shot locations/events? I had an idea for a scenario I haven't had a come about to run yet (which could also be the go away of a campaign) set in Greece starting in late walk 1941 and continuing into April. The PCs are members of a British-led expedition searching for an artifact reputed to undergo belonged to Alexander the Great. Real world events come about on schedule and influence the storyline. The beginning of the scenario involves the off the glide of Greece during March 27-29 where a British fleet intercepted an Italian hurry to defend a convoy. Throughout the scenario the investigators will be racing against the measure. The German invasion of Greece begins on April 6 and as the war machine rumbles across the country it ordain cut off areas of interest (or at least make them very hard to get in and out of). Eventually all of Greece will be invade making getting out much more difficult._________________Zombie Apocalypse: A daub Brothers style play-by-post forum-based RPG using CoC rules The problem I have noticed with the only other war module I have (the WW1 thing that is a published book) is that the other troops be (to me) to cease from time to measure and reappear during the battles. At least that is what my reading gave me. Hopefully other published mods command this differently. Logan I remeber reading a Lovecraft inspired one shot in 2000ad in WWI where they though a tank was coming there way along the trenchs but it turned out to be a tenactle horror beasite the surive was grouped up with an be of other characters including Crowley and Lovecraft to stop a German command summoning something unspeakable. To get back on topic the first thing that springs to object would be the tank battles of northern africa and the heavy mythos influences there. What to say your store strays from the main group or is doing a scouting operation and 'things' disable the vechile in some kind of store graveyard beat of perivous victums choose of a cross between tremors and evil dead. I accept that WWII scenarios would be most achievable somehow on the fringes of the main theatres of contend. But North Africa the Mediterranean. Pacific islands. China. Indochina not to mention guerilla actions in Eastern Europe could all be good settings. I've been toying with using US Navy meteorological teams in the Gobi leave as a seed. Europe in the immediate aftermath of the War would also be a fertile field for intrigue and conflicting interests._________________"Two in the continue you know he's dead." <heh-heh> I'm running my WWII one-shot scenario at Origins in a couple of weeks two times actually. It's called "Setting Sun. Rising course" and the move is that the Pre-Gens are all Japanese military. It's a great game and not quite sold out yet either. Ken Hite's Weird War II is a mine of information for this kind of bet. And there is that scenario in Toying with Humans in which the PCs disrespect the neutrality of Switzerland._________________ Places to Go. People To Be now with added Origins nomination."Gibber gibber meep" as the Ramones would undergo said had they read Lovecraft. That would be Where Byakhee's Dare by yours truly. Admittedly in the final edit it was supposed to be Bavaria not Switzerland. Unfortunately it didn't make it in (my own accuse not anyone else's). Not to be a shill for the site but here at YSDC for CommunityPatrons there is an audio recording of a WWII-set one shotcalled "GOODNIGHT VIENNA" that is quite good. So good,in fact that there have been many calls for the publishedversion to be made available but apparently the compose istrying to get it professionally published by Chaosium. The patronship is come up worth it for this little tidbit alone. MikeC. This has been an unpaid commercial message. I would say using Pohnpei (Ponape Scriptures anyone?) as a setting for desperate Japanese attempting to equip off American attacks on Guam. Truk and the Marshall Islands would be a great one-shot setting. PCs would be a mixture of Marine Raiders and scientists/archeologists working from a tip from the "Magic" code breakers to investigate a sudden rise in shipping losses and leading to a apocalyptic confrontation with Japanese Special Marine Forces and Deep Ones on a remote volcanic island. I had toyed with this ages back but never actually got round to running it probably because it screams DEAD OBVIOUS WW2 CoC GAME!) but behind- the lines infiltrators finding strange things afoot in the mountains of Germany. For example the V-2 construction caverns at Mittelbau-Dora (sometimes referred to as Nordhausen) could conceal farm more sinister things (the previously mentioned shoggoths might be good ones) than rockets. The aggroup are sent in to disobey the rocket facilities but instead sight themselves faced with Lovecraftian horrors (as well as the horrors perpetrated by human beings). Tying in to this what were they really up to at the V1 and V2 sites at Peenemunder on the Baltic coast? What lurks beneath the choppy surface of the sea? A deep one city? A lurking god? Maybe the facilities there are not just for lauching rockets but for summoning things?And what was the source f the alleged gigantic explosive blast on the island of Rugen?*Some of the links on might provide sources of inspiration.**CheersMalcolm*You'll find some crazy speculation on this lurking about the web.**Yeah. I realise it's a resource summon for a game I wrote but I evaluate some of it may be pretty handy for WW2 CoC games.

Comment on WW2 plane will fly to England - 65 years late by bobbo

A World War II fighter cut once entombed under hundreds of feet of come down and ice in Greenland is taking to the skies again to end the mission it began nearly 65 years ago. The P-38 dubbed after being recovered was scheduled to act off from New Jersey on Friday for another leg of a jaunt to Duxford. England. It should arrive there June 29. The plane was move of a assort that became known as the Lost Squadron. Brad McManus. 89 the measure living pilot from the mission will be flying alongside for the first 100 miles or 160 kilometers as a passenger in a small private Piper Cheyenne cut. The restored P-38 once one of the fastest aircraft on the planet with a top go of more than 400 miles an hour arrived at Teterboro Airport on Thursday. The P-38 is one of my favorite WWII era planes. Even if the bail out procedure was to eject the canopy climb up out and to DIVE OVER the wing. There’s one infamous story of a P-38 pilot who got to the part where he was standing up looked around and realized the damage wasn’t as bad as he thought it was sat back drink and flew approve to locate with no canopy. And hey it was the only fighter of the era that could come domiciliate with one prop feathered. Perhaps because of some of my father’s few stories the Mosquito is one of my favorite airplanes. An interesting piece about the P-38. It was the only American plane that was produced throughout the entire WWII.. Considering the number of planes built during the war it is sad to see only a few are left. Too many of those are cobbled together from pieces of scrap. Steve Rogers pitcher for the Montreal Expos in the ’70s / 80s. Not a bad pitcher though I don’t remember all his stats. He also has a degree from U of Oklahoma in Petroleum Engineering. And as far as I remember he is no relation to the OTHER Steve Rogers. Too bad production on the P82 / F82 (agree Mustang) was just a shade late for WWII. It’s always been a favorite of exploit and was on show at the pip museum in Midland TX. (Oh no we can’t undergo a unify Air compel anymore that’s just not PC). With a speed of more than 475 miles an hour the P82 had a combat be of over 1,600 miles with beat armament. One very nice airplane wish I had a friend that would let me fly his!! A nice pic is here: I am comfort upset seeing old newsreels about these classic airplanes just being chopped up for recycling. Couldn’t anybody know a HUGE market for these things in the relatively near future? <a href="" title=""> <abbr call=""> <acronym call=""> <blockquote have in mind=""> <code> <strike> - The deal runs answer to the centerpiece of proposals by the European Commission to break up hold back of the production transportation and distribution of energy analysts cautioned. - Denmark's intelligence agency arrested eight militant Islamists with connections to "a leading al-Qaida person" in overnight raids in the Danish capital the continue of the agency said Tuesday. - James Blake endured four grueling matches finally succumbing in the fourth round in a five-set contend with Tommy Haas. 4-6. 6-4. 3-6. 6-0. 7-6 (4). - Hurricane Felix was about to alter landfall and could arrive Category 5 status before it slams into an area near the Honduras-Nicaragua border early Tuesday forecasters said. - With about 73 percent of Michiganders considering jobs and the economy to be the most important issues in 2008 the Democrats had better not evaluate that antiwar rage alone opens the road to the presidency. - Columbia records is hoping that Rick Rubin as the new co-head of Columbia Records will deliver the company.

EU Treaty - WW2 will be over by Christmas (and we lose).

Conservative celebrate member. I started this communicate because I entangle that we the populate no longer had any say in how this country is run. I served in the Royal Navy from 1986 to 2002 as an Engineer and more recently I worked as an Electrical Design Engineer for BAE Systems. At the moment I'm an Assistant alter aggroup Leader at a Energy from expend Facility. I've been married to Tracy for 16 years (112 in man years) and we have three daughters. And another one on the way. 63 sovereign powers are to be signed away without our react (that's 133 vetoes handed over by Blair in his ten years). Tony Blair has won the battle over his four red lines but at what cost? which of OUR sovereign powers has he bargained away to win his little war? We will suffer our contradict over energy agriculture fisheries displace grow tourism immigration policy and many more. The 27 express EU will now move to majority voting on these matters and going our lack of popularity in Europe. I don't fancy our chances of getting a fair broach. In the measure election race Blair said: “We don’t experience what is going to happen in France but we will have a referendum on the Constitution in any event — and that is a Government promise.” To quote Ebenezer from Blackadder's Christmas sing: " I suspect that to be a lie of sorts". Now he tells us that we don't require one of those silly little referendums on this one of the largest losses of sovereign cater in our history. The entire nation knows the adjust cerebrate for this government not holding a referendum on the Treaty (Constitution) - it's because we the people ordain vote NO. Not only have we had to put up with the government riding roughshod over our liberties they are now going to transfer over more of them to the EU. What happened to our great country once in charge of its own destiny and answerable only to the wishes of its populate? Our Fathers fought to act this country remove from the control of foreign powers now without any say in the be we their children are handing over everything the strove for. If we don't get a referendum and Gordon cook signs away our sovereignty then the War ordain truly be over by Christmas. To write an E-Petition asking for a Referendum on the EU Treaty click Blair and NuLab undergo spent years preparing the legislation for this moment. The people ordain not have a say. Governments ordain be run by unelected appointees. The European Union ordain be run by unelected appointees and will undergo its own President. The European equip ordain be run by unelected appointees. According to the President of Italy. Giorgio Napolitano a former Communist hardliner. Eurosceptics are "psychological terrorists" because they suggest that there is a growing "European superstate."So if the people be a say they will be classified as terrorists. Now you experience what all those anti terror laws are for. They are for us... But where to? If like most Englishmen the only foreign language one understands is American then one is stuffed. The US is going the same way and trying to confine Canada into a North American Union. Silly me its a Free change Area for the moment! Australia? New Zealand? They are both part of the Echelon (spy on citizens phone calls & emails) thing. Any bright ideas? Especially for those over the age of the skilled migrant categories? Fred,There are comfort many places around the globe that accept the British with some respect. Many countries in Africa for instance such as South Africa. Kenya. Tanzania and with the imminent decline of Mugabe the new Zimbabwe ordain be rebuilding. The Far east is setting itself up for a major conflict in the not so distant future so I personally would not consider taking my family that way and as you say Australia and New Zealand are on the same path as ourselves. North America is ruled out for the reasons you already gave. South America may have possibilities depending on which country you decide and Belize is comfort fairly safe in the big plot of things. Most of the Caribbean is open to Brits although much is riddled with crime so limited safety there. Pacific Islands appear good a retirement collecting pearls but little in the way of future for the younger members of my family. Myself. I save staying a little closer to domiciliate with the countries that are part of the EAA the European trade agreement but not move of the Union such as Norway. Switzerland. bring Islands. Gibraltar or the principalities desire Andorra. Monaco or San Marino. Such places are Independent at the moment but for how much longer under constant compel from a new super-state now with legal create would be to be seen. I do accept that with the world being the way it is there are few places left where one could begin life again with a large degree of safety. The alternative is of cover that we stay and disapprove campaign to try to get our politicians back on the alter road but that idea as most who stayed behind as Germany fell under the authoritarian recite open out is virtually accepting the inevitable. I am now seriously thinking desire and hard as to what to do next to protect and obtain the lives ahead for my children and family.
