"... It is only in this way that we can hope to arrive at truth, and fulfill the great responsibility which we hold to God and our country. Should I keep back my opinions at such a time, through fear of giving offense, I should consider myself as guilty of treason towards my country, and of an act of disloyalty toward the Majesty of Heaven, which I revere above all earthly kings."....I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"

THE US NAVY RESCUES A COUPLE IN THE MICRONESIA ISLAND AFTER SPOTTING THE UNIVERSAL SYMBOL "SOS" - THE COUPLE HAS BEEN SHIPWRECKED SINCE AUGUST 19TH
Two stranded mariners are safe Friday after crews spotted their “SOS” in the sand on uninhabited island in Micronesia.
A U.S. Navy aircraft crew spotted the couple on the beach, and relayed their location to the Coast Guard in Guam. The two, who had limited supplies and no emergency equipment, were picked up and transferred to a patrol boat.
The Coast Guard got a report about the couple's 18-foot vessel going missing on Aug. 19.
The two departed Weno Island on Aug. 17, and were expected to arrive at their destination to Tamatam Island the next day.
Over seven days, the Coast Guard and other agencies searched nearly 17,000 square miles for the two.
