Keep it
moving, please, even if you've seen it before.

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,



ETERNAL
REST GRANT THEM O LORD, AND LET PERPETUAL LIGHT SHINE UPON
THEM.



I'd be
EXTREMELY proud if this email reached as many as possible. We can be very
proud of our young men and women in the service no matter where they serve.


God
Bless them all!!

Makes you proud to be an American
