[NFBFTtreasure-Coast] Fwd: [Chapter-Presidents] It's The Veteran

[NFBFL Treasure Coast]

Hello

Wishing you all a very happy and safe memorial day!!! Please take a moment out of your day and weekend to pause and think those who have served in our military and given their lives and those who are currently serving. We truly think them from the bottom of our hearts for their selfless contributions to our country.

Please read the attached email. It is very heartfelt and well said for the occasion.

May God continue to bless you all and keep you healthy and safe…

Thank you
Nicole

Veterans Poem

 

 

Veterans poem

It’s the veteran

not the preacher

Who has given us the freedom of religion.

 

It’s the veteran

Not the reporter

Who has given us the freedom of the press.

 

It’s the veteran

Not the poet

Who has given us the freedom of speech.

 

It’s the veteran

Not the campus organizer

Who has given us the freedom to assemble.

 

It’s the veteran

Not the lawyer

Who has given us the right to a fair trial.

 

It’s the veteran

Not the politician

Who has given us the right to vote.

 

It’s the veteran who honors the flag

It’s the veteran who serves under the flag

No matter where they serve,

God Bless Them All!

God Bless America!
