We Venerate our Fallen Soldiers

I received this in an email chain letter which I usually delete straight away. I will not forward chain letters and the only way I could reconcile this tenet was to post it here. I truly venerate our fallen soldiers and wanted to pass this along. I could not post yestersay as some days have a significant burden upon me.

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



ETERNAL REST GRANT THEM O LORD,

AND LET PERPETUAL LIGHT SHINE UPON THEM.

We can be very proud of our men and women in the service no matter where they serve.

God Bless them all!!!
