Thanks to ALL my fellow veterans!!!
The following was written by Father Dennis Edward
O'Brian (USMC):
"It is the soldier, not the reporter
Who has given us freedom of the press.
It is the soldier, not the poet
Who has given us freedom of speech.
It is the soldier, not the campus organizer
Who has given us the freedom to demonstrate.
It is the soldier, who salutes the flag
Who serves beneath the flag
And who's coffin is draped by the flag
Who allows the protester to burn the flag."
