Teach your children well!

Teach Your Children Well

Teach your children well,
Their father's hell did slowly go by,
And feed them on your dreams
The one they picked, the one you'll know by.

Don't you ever ask them why, if they told you, you would cry,
So just look at them and sigh and know they love you.

~Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young

At the 2005 Armed Forces Day event at Fort Bliss, Bianca Parra, 11, strained to cock a 40 mm
Mark 19 grenade launcher while Spc. Keith Lewandowski of the 978th MP Company looked on.
This year's event is Saturday. (El Paso Times file photo)

I think Bianca has a promising career of slinging lead ahead of her.

Yes, Bianca really seems to be enjoying herself. I'm thinking there are undercover recruiters at these open houses and by demonstrating her lust to launch, Bianca is now, herself, being targeted?
