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 served under the Flag,
ETERNAL REST GRANT UNTO
THEM, O LORD, AND LET PERPETUAL LIGHT SHINE UPON THEM.
God Bless them all!!!
A young soldier was praying before bedtime one night, another soldier told him to stop that noise and threw one of his boots at him.
The next morning, the soldier who had been praying returned the boot to its owner cleaned and polished, and asked for the other one and said he would also polish that one.
The young soldier was never abused again.
