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!!!!!
