There is something Special About a Veteran (Veteran's Day Approaches)
Posted on 11/03/2003 5:37:56 PM PST by SandRat
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, 
and who serves under the Flag,

Ours is closed. They were in an old, old building and the new one isn't finished yet. On the up side the NCO Club on post is having a "Bring a Vet to Lunch" this week with a guest speaker from the Veteran's Administration.

God Bless American veterans and let not those who claim their constitutional rights forget who preserved those rights for them.

I'm so glad you posted this. A girlfriend sent this to me at my home e-mail. I forwarded it to my work e-mail, but the firewall stripped out all the graphics. YOu made my day!
