It is the
soldier, not the reporter, |
who has given us freedom of the press. |
 |
It is the
soldier, not the poet, |
who has given us freedom of speech. |
|
|
|
 |
It is the
soldier, not the lawyer, |
who has given us the right of a free trial. |
 |
It is the
soldier, not the campus advocate, |
who has given us freedom to demonstrate. |
 |
|
|
|
|
|
 |
And
it is the soldier, |
(who salutes the flag, serves under it,
and whose coffin is draped by it), |
who
must look on when the dissenter desecrates
her glory in protest. |
 |
|
|
|
Never
Take YOUR FREEDOM for Granted!

"Under
the uniform, the soldier is your neighbor, brother, sister, father,
mother, son, daughter, husband, wife, friend, helpful salesperson,
a company's service rep, or former coworker.”
