HEADQUARTERS GRAND ARMY OF THE REPUBLIC

General Orders No.11, WASHINGTON, D.C., May 5, 1868

The 30th day of May, 1868, is designated for the purpose of strewing with flowers or otherwise decorating the graves of comrades who died in defense of their country during the late rebellion, and whose bodies now lie in almost every city, village, and hamlet church-yard in the land. In this observance no form of ceremony is prescribed, but posts and comrades will in their own way arrange such fitting services and testimonials of respect as circumstances may permit.

We are organized, comrades, as our regulations tell us, for the purpose among other things, "of preserving and strengthening those kind and fraternal feelings which have bound together the soldiers, sailors, and marines who united to suppress the late rebellion."

What can aid more to assure this result than cherishing tenderly the memory of our heroic dead, who made their breasts a barricade between our country and its foes?

Their soldier lives were the reveille of freedom to a race in chains, and their deaths the tattoo of rebellious tyranny in arms.

We should guard their graves with sacred vigilance.

All that the consecrated wealth and taste of the nation can add to their adornment and security is but a fitting tribute to the memory of her slain defenders.

Let no wanton foot tread rudely on such hallowed grounds.

Let pleasant paths invite the coming and going of reverent visitors and fond mourners.

Let no vandalism of avarice or neglect, no ravages of time testify to the present or to the coming generations that we have forgotten as a people the cost of a free and undivided republic.

If other eyes grow dull, other hands slack, and other hearts cold in the solemn trust, ours shall keep it well as long as the light and warmth of life remain to us.

Let us, then, at the time appointed gather around their sacred remains and garland the passionless mounds above them with the choicest flowers of spring-time; let us raise above them the dear old flag they saved from hishonor; let us in this solemn presence renew our pledges to aid and assist those whom they have left among us a sacred charge upon a nation's gratitude, the soldier's and sailor's widow and orphan.

It is the purpose of the Commander-in-Chief to inaugurate this observance with the hope that it will be kept up from year to year, while a survivor of the war remains to honor the memory of his departed comrades.

He earnestly desires the public press to lend its friendly aid in bringing to the notice of comrades in all parts of the country in time for simultaneous compliance therewith.

Department commanders will use efforts to make this order effective.

By order of

JOHN A. LOGAN, Commander-in-Chief

N.P. CHIPMAN, Adjutant General

Official: WM. T. COLLINS, A.A.G.

THIS is NOT the appropriate thread for you to post your libTURD crap loser.

THIS thread is about MEMORIAL DAY whose only purpose is to HONOR all who have DIED in SERVICE.

exactly.

Except that LF has nothing but people like you dreaming about the glories of USSAn military conquest.

And just when do we say that Empire is not what America is about.

Except that America is exactly about conquest and genocide of indigenous people,

so that God's destiny and Amerika's, but I'm being redundant here can be fulfilled.

Memorial Day is over. Just the Bottom 99% getting a Day off.....maybe.

And maybe a very few calling it a paid vacation.

That's it.

If you want to honor. Then bering ALL of ou8r troops home now.

But you don't want that. You think that somehow something is being defended.

Something honorable.

But nothing of the sort is occuring. Only genocide with massive disfiguring physical/mental wounds of our military.

But don't worry. Every civilization does the 'Sparta' thing.

It's last hurrah. Before spiraling into the dust bin of history.

Which you will learn. One way or another.

And this IS the most appropriate venue for these comments.

You're getting more lame with each post.

The downfall was quoting MD, btw.

" What's going on behind the scenes is way more dramatic than what is happening in front of you. There's a force loose in the moment that is pulling levers and pushing buttons that vested interests don't want pulled or pushed. There's a joker in the deck and the joker works for the big dealer who owns the house that we play cards in. Everything is arranged for the purpose of demonstration and an unfortunate demonstration it is, in various locations, where the demonstration is committed to 'go down' a particular way.

About now, the finger pointing is going to start in earnest. Sewer rats are scrambling all over the place trying to squeeze just a little more out of the system before they hightail it out of town."

See. Let me show you how LF operates.

Right now Syria's not on deck.

But it will be. But by then it will be too late to show that AGITPROP is 100% behind USSA military intervention.

We'll have to keep our heads down while the same ilk that pushed the lies of 9/11., Invading the Afghans and Iraq.

And this IS the most appropriate venue for these comments.

No, you foul, hate America FIRST! piece of gibbering libTURD SHIT, THIS THREAD IS NOT THE "PROPER VENUE" for your FILTH.

Your ONLY purpose here was to do what you have done, to turn a respectful thread meant to HONOR ALL WHO HAVE DIED IN SERVICE, into a fucking political smear job.

YOU, and EVERY cunt that does this to the honorable men and women who are our military, are the worst kind of FILTH.

I KNEW that libTURD cunts like YOU wouldn't be able to CONTROL yourselves mctoejam. You libTURDS cunts are incapable of controlling yourselves afterall.

I meant to show that YOU and ALL of your libTURD ilk are basic FILTH, by DEMONSTRATION.

Then YOU demonstrate this with every post that you have made to this thread.

Like ALL libTURD cunts, you try to make it about YOU.

It isn't about YOU creep, it's about ALL OF THEM WHO HAVE DIED IN SERVICE!

But you foul libTURD cunts aren't ever going to allow any respectful appreciation of the sacrifices OUR men and women have made, (sacrifices that enable gibbering libTURD garbage such as you to talk your foul hate filled shit as if you are sane or relevant btw creep).

Your entire point here was and is to shit and piss all over the service, America, and the men and women who have DIED, (so that you can be a foul lying libTURD cunt without any consequences to you).

You even shit all over your imaginary brother and mother, you FOUL beyond mere words creep.

I would be VERY happy to talk to you face to face about this matter, anytime mctoejam.

BUT, YOU being just another libTURD COWARD, and a LIAR, a brain dead Useful IDIOT supporter of TYRANNY with a happy face, and a literal PARASITE who exercises rights that OTHERS have paid for in BLOOD, SWEAT, AND TEARS, would never go face to face with somebody that you know would get REAL on your worthless libTURD crap.

Face it mctoejam, you are a useless creep, and a PARASITE and a COWARD; AND the entire world KNOWS it.

There is NOTHING that a worm like you mctoejam can EVER do to diminish or color the HONOR and RESPECT that ALL who have DIED for America HAVE by dint of their efforts and actions.

YOU and your libTURD ilk in total aren't worth the wounding, let alone the life, of even one man.

I wouldn't piss on you if you were on fire SCUM, and I suspect no American who loves America would either.

When YOU look into the mirror creep, what looks back at you is foul beyond words.

You make Dorian Grey's portrait look like a cover on some fancy magazine CREEP.

I bet that you HATE yourself every time that you look into the mirror.

Afterall, the ONLY things you can ever see in the mirror are a COWARD, a foul LIAR, a jealous and envious LOSER CREEP, and an over all LOSER who has to make up stories about your brother.

It's obvious that you are just FILTH.

To EVERYBODY.

Spoiled, stupid and ignorant, brain dead phuckwads, libTURD fools, tools, and idiots, are the real sickness; the messiah "king" obammy and his regime are only the symptoms.

Interesting, I posted a THREAD that HONORS MEMORIAL DAY, a day that has always been about just ONE THING, to HONOR ALL WHO HAVE DIED IN SERVICE TO AMERICA.

I post it to HONOR them ALL, and to you that makes me "scum" eh mctoejam?

LOL! OK. Sure, You BETCHA!

My "witty banter" is orders of magnitude more intelligent, clear and information filled than you gerbil like screeching and posturing are loser.

LOL!

You don't reply to me you cowardly little libTURD cunt, because I DESTROY your gibbering made up BULLSHIT with absolutely ZERO effort.

I have only ONE "master" mctoejam, HE is not of just this earth and HE is of ALL of THIS earth. Don't worry yer wittle noggin about it mctoejam. You OBVIOUSLY know not GOD. Gibber away fool.

I would be happy to compare the factual content of ALL of my posts to that of yours creep. LOL! of course, finding ANY actual TRUTH/FACTS in your libTURD gibbering will be almost impossible.

Btw mctoejam, I haven't been at LP for YEARS. Yukon has nothing to do with me, except that we live in the great state of ALASKA. But that's OK dim bulb, I understand that libTURD cunts such as you have absolutely zero chance of ever understanding INDIVIDUALS like ME, after all you libTURD cunts can't even survive outside of your HERDS, so you can't even concieve of people as INDIVIDUALS can you mctoejam?

Hell you libTURD cunts can't even imagine how to deal with a world filled with INDIVIDUALS! Instead your brain dead SOP/dogma forces you to see people ONLY as parts of groups..

I'm NOT A GROUP mctoejam, I'm just ME.

I'm an INDIVIDUAL American, you pitiful whiny little libTURD cunt, and you libTURD cunts have no idea about how to deal with ME or any other INDIVIDUAL American.

You don't reply to me mctoejam because I stick your libTURD LIES and HYPOCRISY right back up your fat libTURD ass. I don't even bother pretending that you ever have a valid point, because you never have.

It really comes down to one basic FACT, you are fucking STUPID mctoejam.

Go play in the traffic loser.

It’s now commonly estimated that more than 50 nations have drones, are making plans to develop them, or are at least planning to buy them from those who do produce them. In other words, the future global skies are going to be a busy -- and increasingly dangerous -- place. They will be filled not just with robotic surveillance aircraft, but also with non-U.S. remotely piloted armed assassins which, thanks to the path Washington has blazed, need pay no attention to anyone’s national sovereignty in a search for their version of bad guys to destroy. Iranians, Israelis, Russians, Chinese, Indians, British -- you name it and if they don’t already have something robotic aloft, they undoubtedly will soon enough. And those estimates don’t even include insurgent groups and terrorists, who are undoubtedly giving real thought to how to develop and use the equivalent of suicide drones.

And of course I love how CSPAN (just an example of Rah Rah USSA/Israel journalism turns new ground with (? mark Topics): How do you feel about gov't cyber attacks?

Or some bs like that.

To intro Israel's throwing out FLame type software with ZERO consideration of blowback.

HEADQUARTERS GRAND ARMY OF THE REPUBLIC General Orders No.11, WASHINGTON, D.C., May 5, 1868

First....in 1868 the Grand Army had hung my uncle 3 years earlier and by 1868, failing to find our resources had managed to steal 80 acres....;}

The same 80 sticks out like a sore thumb on any land map today...;}

So until Reconstruction in 1873 was over, we really didn't have much to do with the Grand Army.....;}

LOL!

You ignorant LYING piece of shit!

The Grand Army of the Republic was a VETERANS organization you gibbering libTURD SCUM, and IT didn't even EXIST in 1865.

-----

"Emerging most powerful among the various organizations would be the Grand Army of the Republic (GAR), which by 1890 would number almost 500,000 veterans of the "War of the Rebellion."

Founded in Decatur, Illinois on April 6, 1866 by Benjamin F. Stephenson, membership was limited to honorably discharged veterans of the Union Army, Navy, Marine Corps or the Revenue Cutter Service who had served between April 12, 1861 and April 9, 1865. "

I know for a fact that the yankee army that marched off to the first battle with the Confederate Army was refereed to as "The Grand Army of the Republic".

I have no doubt you are correct about a post Civil War yankee veterans organization also being called The Grand Army of the Republic,but the first organization to bear that title were Mr.Lincolns invaders.

Sorry pete that is factually incorrect.

According to the US Army, the UNION Army lead by McDowell was called the Army of Northeastern Virginia.

"McDowell immediately began organizing what became known as the Army of Northeastern Virginia, 35,000 men arranged in five divisions."

www.histo ry.army.mil/Staf...ull%20Run/Overview.htm#b1

-------------

As to "the Grand Army of the Republic".

Sorry pete wrong on the facts again. There is no citation, nor ANY mention of "the Grand Army of the Republic", ever before the GAR was founded as a veterans organization in 1866.

The GAR NEVER existed except as such an organization. It was NEVER a real Army.

Sometimes different armies had different names, but during the WAR, no Union Army was ever called "the Grand Army of the Republic.

Sorry pete, I just searched the civil WAR's order of battle for the GAR and it does NOT exist.

I can find NO citation of any such army Union or Confederate on any order of battle list.

I also know from prior experience with the GAR that it was NEVER anything but a veterans organization.

I can still remember wondering what that "GAR" after really old men's names was when I was a wee crumb snatcher.

My own family fought for South Carolina.

According to the US Army, the UNION Army lead by McDowell was called the Army of Northeastern Virginia.

It has been a few decades since I really researched this stuff,but I am pretty sure I remember at least on newspaper refereeing to Winfield Scott's Army that marched off to "beat the rebels and end the war in 3 days" as "The Grand Army of the Republic". This was the First Battle of Bull Run,and all the "right people" from DC society rode carriages out to the battlefield to enjoy the show because they didn't want to miss the war. That battle was a real wake-up call for a lot of people. Even people who weren't there,thanks to the battlefield photographs taken by Mathew Brady and his new-fangled camera.

There is also a Civil War museum in Pa that calls itself the Grand Army of the Republic Museum,and while clearly claiming this term covers the Union Army during the Civil War,they also mention the veterans organization you write about,and indicate they took their name from that organization.

http://garmuslib.org/

In my OPINION it is likely in either case that the name came from the title awarded to Scott's army by a patriotic reporter trying to juice up a story to get readers attention.

First Bull Run is the battle I just spoke of.

I was of a similar mind as you are before I started collecting GAR exonumia.

But as I have looked for a citation over the years to prove to myself where I got this apparently incorrect idea, I've not been able to find one.

Maybe it was used unofficially but never to my knowledge was it ever official.

The first drone shot down in the US.

You won't here about this except thru a non reputable site.

Or if you live near where the drone went down....;}

He is my hero.” Brazas’ father told the Greensboro News-Record that the sailor was shot while trying to help a soldier get in a helicopter. *****

The only reason for helping someone into a helo on the battle field is that it's an ambulance.....

Several dozen of US-NATO invaders killed, 2 helicopters destroyed in martyrdom operation

Zabihullah Mujahid E-mail Print PDF Friday, 11 Rajab 1433 Friday, 01 June 2012 17:32 KHOST, June. 01 –

You're probably right. It sounds like a title a presidential spokescritter/PR hack or a newspaper writer/editor would come up with,not a Army General.
