"Heavenly Father, I know that I am in battle against a supernatural force of evil, and the only way I can be triumphant in this battle is through an even more powerful force. I know that you are that force. Thank you for giving me the wisdom, courage, and strength to be your hands and feet in this world. Thank you for the opportunity to stand between oppression and freedom. Today, I cast down every fear, every thought that doesn’t align with your Word. I ask you today to give me the discernment to identify the strategies of the enemy and the wisdom to respond. Grant me the courage to act based on my training, preparation, and level of skill. In Jesus’ Holy Name I pray. Amen."
- Lt. Col. Dave Grossman
“Surrounded,” by Don Troiani. The 9th Virginia Regiment makes a desperate last stand in the previously overrun British camp at Germantown, Oct. 4, 1777. The 9th had previously broken the 4th Regiment of Foot but outran their supports and in the fog became surrounded by the counterattacking British. In the background can be seen the attacking light infantry of the 42nd Highlanders, the Black Watch.
