This Memorial Day Don't Forget Who We Owe.

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.

Linked to Gratituesday because I am forever grateful for all Service Men and Women who are serving and have served our nation.
