A Coffin Draped By The Flag

This poem is an amazing tribute to American soldiers. I was very moved and very honored when I came across this. I hope that it can be a great blessing to you just as it was for me.

It's the soldier,
not the reporter who has given us Freedom of the Press.

It's the soldier,
not the poet, who has given us Freedom of Speech.

It's the soldier,
not the campus organizer, who has given us the Freedom to Demonstrate.

It's the soldier,
not the lawyer, who has given us the Right to a Fair Trial.

It's the soldier who salutes the flag, serves under the flag and whose coffin is draped by the flag.
