Veteran's Day By Father Denis

Veteran's 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 protester to burn the flag.
"I will be a warrior so that my son may be a merchant, so that his son may be a poet.
--- John Adams in a letter to Thomas Jefferson
Thank you Vets! We'd be nowhere without you.
