COT / WORDS OF WISDOM:

>From Psalm 144 today:

Blessed be the Lord, my rock,
Who trains my hands for war,
And my fingers for battle;
My lovingkindness and my fortress,
My stronghold and my deliverer,
My shield and He in whom I take refuge,
Who subdues [a]my people under me.

God built David for the battles ahead of him and He has brought you to the battles you face this day. When Jesus is our King, our fortress, our stronghold, we have hope that we can conquer each and every battle before us.

COUNT: 10
WARMUP: the usual. SSH, imperial walkers, hillbillies, cherry pickers, willie Mays Hayes, Moroccan nightclubs, copperhead squats THE THANG:
The PAX moseyed to the bleachers to find 5 stations along the length of the field. After splitting into 6 groups, 5 of them took a position by an exercise, either:
Box jumps, dips, pistol squats, toe touches, or Derkins. The sixth group ran out of the bleachers and along the track, and back to the other end of the bleachers to relieve the first group. That group relieved the next group, and so on until all PAX completed each exercise.

The PAX then moseyed to the field and lined up on the end zone for a traveling Jack Webb. This comprised a 10 yd bear crawl, 1 merkin, and 4 OH presses. Repeat adding 1 merkin and 4 presses after each 10 yards, for 100 yards.

Because the PAX enjoyed the Jack Webb’s so much, we followed them with a traveling Lieutenant Dan. This was a 10 yd broad jump, 1 alt lunge (each leg) and 4 BWS. Sadly, the Q had to call off the fun after 80 yards for time.

MARY: flutters, snow devils, Freddie Mercury’s.

He died Sept. 29, 2007, of wounds sustained while on a ground patrol in Afghanistan.

Tellier pulled two paratroopers out of the vehicle to safety, suffering severe burns to his hands. He was awarded the Bronze Star Medal with valor for his actions. After he was burned, Tellier jumped up in the turret to return fire. Paid the ultimate sacrifice.

COT: May 17 & 18 in History – Two Major Civil Rights Cases With Opposite Impacts

Yesterday was May 17, and in 1954, in a major civil rights victory, the U.S. Supreme Court hands down an unanimous decision in Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka, ruling that racial segregation in public educational facilities is unconstitutional. The historic decision, which brought an end to federal tolerance of racial segregation, specifically dealt with Linda Brown, a young African American girl who had been denied admission to her local elementary school in Topeka, Kansas, because of the color of her skin.

On May 18 1896, the Supreme Court ruled seven to one in Plessy v. Ferguson that "separate but equal" accommodations in railroad cars conformed to the 14th Amendment’s guarantee of equal protection. That ruling was used to justify segregating all public facilities, including elementary schools. However, in the case of Linda Brown, the white school she attempted to attend was far superior to her Black alternative and miles closer to her home. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) took up Linda’s cause, and in 1954 Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka reached the Supreme Court. African American lawyer (and future Supreme Court justice) Thurgood Marshall led Brown’s legal team, and on May 17, 1954, the high court handed down its decision.

In an opinion written by Chief Justice Earl Warren, the nation’s highest court ruled that not only was the “separate but equal” doctrine unconstitutional in Linda’s case, it was unconstitutional in all cases because educational segregation stamped an inherent badge of inferiority on African American students. A year later, after hearing arguments on the implementation of their ruling, the Supreme Court published guidelines requiring public school systems to integrate “with all deliberate speed.”
