Kev’s Daily Take On 08/14/2025

I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands, One nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. John 3:16

Military Honors

NAVAJO CODE TALKERS DAY honors the unbreakable secret code and the Native Americans who brought it to us during WWII. The enemy was never able to decipher it and it served the Marines well.

A Tip of the Hat Goes to…

SPIRIT OF ’45 DAY remembers the attitude of our country during WWII. Everyone came together and pitched in. The soldiers went off to fight, the women went to work in factories, the kids took on chores at home and everyone rationed and saved when it was needed. That was a long time ago and a couple of generations removed, but I would like to think that we could do it again.

On Today’s Menu…

Time to cool off with NATIONAL CREAMSICLE DAY. These frozen treats have the cream in the middle and a flavored sherbet shell. Orange is the original flavor, but now there is quite the variety. I’d say it’s a great day to get your creamsicle on.
