It Is The Veteran

It is the VETERAN,
not the preacher,
who has given us freedom of religion.

It is the VETERAN,
not the reporter,
who has given us freedom of the press.

It is the VETERAN,
not the poet,
who has given us freedom of speech.

It is the VETERAN,
not the campus organizer,
who has given us freedom to assemble.

It is the VETERAN,
not the lawyer,
who has given us the right to a fair trial.

It is the VETERAN,
not the politician,
Who has given us the right to vote.

It is the VETERAN
who salutes the Flag..............











......It is the VETERAN
who serves under the Flag.


God Bless them all!!!

Makes you proud to be an AMERICAN!!!!

IN GOD WE TRUST!

Thank you for the post Nora. I am humbled as hell every time I see these pictures, and they stand as a great reminder of those who have given their lives for the freedom of this country. I love Memorial Day weekend, and traditionally cook-out and remember those who have made the ultimate sacrifice (I know it sounds cheesy, but it's true!). This day always strikes a chord with me, and unfortunately I'll be on the road for it this year.

I'm heading for North Little Rock on Monday, for the SLC (Senior Leader Course). It's a month long school, and I'll miss Fathers day as well as my Birthday while I'm there. It's going to be a pain in the ass school, and I'll be glad to get it over with!

I hope you all have a great and safe weekend, and take time to remember those who never made it home.
