HAPPY VETERAN’S DAY–MY THANKS TO ALL THE VETERAN’S THIS DAY
Father of fallen hero Aaron Aamot reflects on Veterans Day
MARK AAMOT - THE BELLINGHAM HERALD
On the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918, the "War to end all Wars" came to a close. Peace came to a world embroiled in war. It was to celebrate this peace that this day, Armistice Day, first became a national holiday - a day to remember and thank those who had brought it.
In the subsequent years our nation followed a policy eschewing war, putting actions to our words with peace conferences and disarmament treaties. We, of course, were not alone in these efforts to bring a lasting peace to our world.
1936: Gallup polled the American people concerning our possible involvement in another conflict in Europe. We were in the middle of the Great Depression. Domestic problems far outweighed foreign affairs. We had watched the rise of Mussolini, Hitler, and an ever more militaristic Japan under Hirohito. They looked and sounded like characters out of a comic book. They were little people, inconsequential people. Nobody in America wanted to die for some slob living halfway around the world. It didn't concern us. Nineteen out of 20 Americans said "stay out of foreign entanglements."
March, 1938: Neville Chamberlain, Prime Minister of Great Britain, stepped off his plane holding a treaty signed by the powers of Europe. He held it aloft with these words; "It is peace in our time." Eighteen months later, the "peace in our time" came to a violent end.
Dec. 7, 1941, "a day that will live in infamy" that it seems nobody remembers anymore. About 2,400 Americans were killed in a surprise attack on Pearl Harbor. We had no plane to match the Japanese Zero, no force to oppose the German Blitzkrieg.
Although we had pursued peace with single-minded thoughtlessness, we were now at war and the young men and women of our country were called upon to make up for the failures of our diplomats. Wherever they went, they brought war. But peace followed after.
From that time to the present our sons and daughters, friends and neighbors have continued to serve us, the U.S., by going everywhere and doing everything. Regardless of the times or branch of service, they know that once they take that oath and put on that uniform they may find themselves in a place of extreme danger.
Yet generation after generation the great young men and women of America continue to come forth and stand in the gap for us. It is solely because of their willingness to do so - to sacrifice for all of us - that we as a nation continue to enjoy safety, security, our freedoms and our sacred rights in the midst of a world full of turmoil and uncertainty.
November is a significant month for our family. It was November, 1945, that dad came home. He stepped off the train down at the depot and walked uptown to the building now known as the Bellingham Towers, where his dad was working. Grandpa packed up his tools and they went home together.
Sixty-four years later, dad's grandson flew into the airport to a very different reception, as many thousands of people turned out to welcome him home. In the year since, our family has attended many memorials and dedications.
But this time of year brings to mind another dedicatory service attended by a man to whom the lives and fortunes of the soldier, the sailor, the Marine were always held close to his heart and mind for he was their commander-in-chief and he knew what they represented. On another November this tall, gaunt, haggard-looking man, Abraham Lincoln, stood up and encapsulated who we are as a nation protected by a citizen soldiery in a few simple words that still resonate today:
"It is for us, the living, rather, to be dedicated, here, to the unfinished work that they have thus far so nobly carried on. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us ... that the nation shall, under God, have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth."
Mark Aaron Aamot of Custer is a native of Whatcom County. While he never served in the Armed Forces, he is the son of one soldier and the father of four more. Aamot's son, U.S. Army Spc. Aaron Aamot died in Afghanistan in 2009.

Thank You for Voting
The votes are in and in many places they are still being counted. This has been a long and amazing election season. Some of the outcomes are a little surprising, but I’ve seen a lot of Jekyll & Hyde voting in Washington State before and there’s a little of that this election cycle, also. All in all, there was a great turnout and we move on to the next election cycle to keep turning this political ship around, back to the foundations of our Constitution, both U.S. and State. The first task is to stay in contact with each other and the newly elected representatives to work for these common goals.
Thank you Whatcom County, Washington State and citizens of the United States! You are Silent No More!

If I Were King
Is it really that difficult to understand? Over the past 4 decades, the environmental movement took roots in the government and spread underground into all aspects of the private/public system. The EPA has empowered itself through taxation and regulation of the private sector. Production and manufacturing has moved off the shores of the United States and left us with a high percentage of service jobs. Service jobs are great, but they require something to service. Without a production and manufacturing base in the United States, we eventually run out of service opportunities.
For many years I have understood that the labor force and the environmental groups are like oil and water, they never really mix. As the environmental movement grew, labor shrank and no one has shown us the statistics that reflect this. Profit is not evil, profit is a necessary part of manufacturing and production. Profit is what keeps business in the United States and people working. The labor pool needs to understand that they must work to keep business profitable in the United States, in order to rebuild labor.
This week Washington State senatorial candidate Dino Rossi spoke to us about restoring the economy by turning around the direction that overt government regulation and taxation has taken our State. Senator Murray held a rally at the Bellingham Food Bank to promote giving. I see the two rallies as:
- One candidate wants to give everyone a fish.
- The other candidate wants to teach the people to fish.
Wake-up and bring the jobs back to the United States through solid regulatory reform which protects ‘jobs’ and the ‘environment’.

Dino Rossi comes to Bellingham
Dino Rossi came to Bellingham, Washington to spread the message that we must vote this November to stop the ‘Progressive Party’ from fundamentally destroying America to raise a socialist agenda. So, spread the word and send the Senator in tennis shoes packing back to whence she came from.
