It is the VETERAN

The following was sent to me in and email. I wanted to  share it with you. 

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 who
salutes the flag.



It is 
the VETERAN who
serves under
the flag
