Lest We Forget

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.

May a perpetual light shine upon our veterans.

An amen from me too. Great post.

Sorry I haven't utilized your address the way I'd intended. I'm recovering from surgery at the moment- but I'll be in touch.

I think of you so often.
