moph-chapter-750.com Combat soldiers do not act on their own. Voters elect their representation and those elected officials send us into combat. Taxpayers pay taxes to support the government, so their hand is on the shaft of the spear. Purple Heart recipients and combat soldiers are the tip of the spear. We are all in this together, civilian and combat soldier.

Questions or ideas you’d like to share – call or email me at 805-565-3759 or [email protected]. Sally Irving, Unit 750 President. Los Angeles Dodgers Game A great time for all who attended the game. The Dodgers had us back on May 28. The Dodgers acknowledged the parents of the chapter and unit namesake, Tony and Carol Di-Raimondo. Carol DiRaimondo presented a plaque to Dodgers’ third baseman patriotic Jus-tin Turner. The game is on Memorial Day which is a busy day for many of us. L.A. played the Phillies in a remarkable game with low and high drama; The L.A. Times headline said it all: Phillies defense comes to aid of Dodgers. Down four runs after two in-nings, the Dodgers completed a comeback with a three-run blitz in the eighth inning to cap-ture the opening game of a four-game series. After allowing the Dodgers to comeback in the bottom of the eighth inning, the Phillies saw one of their young stars go down with a scary injury. Left fielder Rhys Hoskins fouled a Kenley Jansen 1-2 pitch off his face in the top of the ninth with two out. The 25-year-old Hoskins immediately went to the dirt and was down holding his mouth.
