Lincolns Gettysburg Address


Fourscore and seven (87) years ago, our nation was created and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.  We are now in a civil war which is testing whether our nation can endure.  We meet on a great battle-field of this war, to dedicate a gravesite for those that died in the battle.

We must dedicate ourselves to the cause for which these brave men died, so that they did not die in vain - that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth.

Photo#2: Harry Truman, he was the man who made the decision to drop the bombs on Japan. His decision I think relates to Lincolns statement about dedicating ourselves to the preservation of our government. The bombs were dropped to end the war and save many American lives.
