I made up this collage of the military flags present at the rally that John Allen Essex mentions in his letter to the editor.

You know, it is nice too that he says "A large group of people, from all races, all ages, were holding signs and waving service flags and the American flag. It was not a protest of political ideologies; it was not a protest of any type. It was all in support of American service members",...... because that is so true. We are not any political party, or any certain religious sect, or any particular race.....we are just Americans, proud Americans, united in our desire to thank those who serve the country we love and protect and defend our freedoms with their lives.

I am ashamed and angered that his co-workers would harass him for being in the military reserves. What kind of animals are these? Are they of the same sick mind as those who spit on our returning Vietnam veterans? I just don't understand this. I will never understand it.

I love the flag collage, Lori.

Those kids from Riverdale came well prepared to show their support.

Enterprise suggests we find where the letter writer works and hold a freep there. Sounds good to me. :-)

ESGR (Employee Support Guard/Reserves) should take care of his work issues. Trust me, if he filed a complaint with an ESGR rep, the business will learn "thou shalt not mess with military personnel".

But a good old fashion Freep could also help.

His letter made me cry. Thanks for posting the collage of flags, too. God bless America.
