Here is the text of the Third Amendment from the Constitution: No Soldier shall, in time of peace be quartered in any house, without the consent of the owner, nor in time of war, but in a manner to be prescribed by law. It is sometimes referred to as Amendment III. 2  Patrick Henry said that the quartering of soldiers was one of the principal reasons for dissolving the connection with Great Britain.. 3  The U.S. government quartered troops in private homes during the War of 1812 and the Civil War.
Arterial Blockages. Blockage of the circulation in the legs is a common sign of atherosclerosis, or hardening of the arteries. Approximately 5 percent of the population over the age of 65 has detectable arterial blockage in the legs.
