[ratpack] Fwd: Preparing for Memorial Day....keep it moving

 

 

It may be a bit early for Memorial Day, but the message is appropriate all year long.       MEMORIAL DAY             Keep it moving, please, even if you've seen it before.   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,            It is the  VETERAN who serves under the Flag,  ETERNAL REST GRANT THEM O LORD, AND LET PERPETUAL LIGHT SHINE UPON THEM.        I'd be EXTREMELY proud if this email reached as many as possible. We can be very proud of our young men and women in the service no matter where they serve.   God Bless them all!!!     Makes you proud to be an AMERICAN!!!!! --
