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.
Happy Memorial Day
