Reminds me of the time I went to speak to a 4th grade class at T.A. when I came back from Desert Storm. This was when I had a bit more of a jewish perspective on things...

Thanks for the flashback, I think.

I attended the presentation. It was very moving. I did not and do not support the war but that is irrelevant; what Rabbi Ackerson did was a real kiddush ha-shem and I'm proud to know him.
