COT: This week was the Jewish new year holiday of Rosh Hashana followed next week by the day of atonement Yom Kippur. Between those two are 10 days of atonement where we ask for forgiveness for things we have done wrong in the past year. Important to note – asking for forgiveness has two parts: first a true recognition and apology for what we have done wrong, and second – the part most of us forget – a promise not to repeat the wrong.

COT: On this day in 1781, the Battle of Yorktown began. This was the last major battle of the Revolutionary War and led to the British surrender. The American Army would not have won this battle were it not for the help of our French and German allies. Much like we couldn’t have completed today’s battle at Yorktown without the aide of our F3 allies. As you head out today, remember that you don’t have to go it alone and you will be more successful when you ask for help.
