Veterans Day
by Father Denis Edward O?Brien, USMC
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 CAMPUS ORGANIZER, WHO HAS GIVEN US THE FREEDOM TO DEMONSTRATE. IT IS THE SOLDIER WHO SALUTES THE FLAG. WHO SERVES BENEATH THE FLAG, AND WHOSE COFFIN IS DRAPED BY THE FLAG. WHO ALLOWS THE PROTESTOR TO BURN THE FLAG.

Boats...
The same to You, as to most all other Honorable Veterans.
Neil P.S. HARDCORE, Believe The Father should've also written: THE SOLDIER, NOT THE POLITICIAN GAVE US AND INSURES ALL AMERICANS THEIR LIBERTY & FREEDOM. And that's a fact Jack. Not just an opinion, Rick.
