It Is The Veteran..

War makes strange giant creatures out of the little routine men who inhabit the Earth. --WWII correspondent Ernie Pyle.



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 serves
under the Flag.
