Memorial Day

Underground
1

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.



Memorial Day is to remember fallen friends and family who proudly served our country and friends and family who today fight here and overseas to protect our freedom.



My brother is a marine and I appreciate the 8 yrs. he has spent protecting my liberties and way of life.



So enjoy BBQing with friends and family, but also remember our service men and women across the globe.

Yep, even if you don't agree with everything that goes on, there were times, either long ago, or more recent, where these guys and girls had no problem dying for you.
