Thank you Redleg as I am a member of the Order of Saint Barbara here in the US Army and my wife is part of the Order of Molly Pitcher. That is something that each and every Redleg wants before his time in the Artillery passes.

And of course, there is a nice little statue of Santa Barbara that we purchased at the Vatican sitting on our mantle.

My old man was a Redleg.
I'm a gas sniffer.
Actually, since that time last week I beat up the other guy, I've been sent to the boiler room.
