thank you veterans

[vetrans]

IN Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses , row on row,
That mark our place, and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing , fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below

We are the dead. Short days ago
We lived,felt dawn ,saw sunset glow,
In Flanders fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch ; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.

-Lt. Col. John McCrae ( 1872- 1918)

[Thank You]

"Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here am I; send me." -Book of Isiah

[It is the Veteran]

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 given us freedom of speech.
It is the Veteran,
not the politician,
who given us the right to vote.
it is the veteran
who salutes the flag.
It is the veteran,
not the lawyer,
who has given the right to a fair trial.

[cannot thank you enough]

To all the Veterans and those currently serving God Bless & thank you!!!

[Artsy]

My prayers are with all of those who have passed and those who continously put their lives in danger. Thank you for your unselfish acts.

[Sam from Connecticut]

I agree with all above great comments.

[LynneB]

My sentiments exactly - thank you to all our Veterans, past, present and future! YOU are the reasons why our country is great and strong.

[Shae Marie]

God Bless America, and all our Veterans.

[Mr Sensible]

Be slowly lifted up, thou long black arm,
Great Gun towering towards Heaven, about to curse;
...
Reach at that Arrogance which needs thy harm,
And beat it down before its sins grow worse.
...
But when thy spell be cast complete and whole,
May God curse thee, and cut thee from our soul!

Wilfred Owen, "On Seeing a Piece of Our Heavy Artillery Brought into Action"

If you can read this - thank a teacher. If you can read this in English, thank a soldier! God bless them and God bless America!

You are welcome Daniel. Although you are an abusive jerk, I served to protect your right to be free and to ascend to be the jerk that you are.

Thats O.K. You're welcome too. I'll just put it in my Garden and get some good use out of it anyway. See, there's a bright side to everything.

I served so that you could be the fat, Jolly, sloppy dressing, non-shaving, under worked, midget loving pasifist that you are.

Since my husband was in the Air Force now Sam is trying to pretend he was an Airman first class isn't that a riot however unless he went by the name Kunchock he has never been in the Air Force

He could not have made it in any of the Branches. He would have been 4-F even before his Physical.
He never was even a Boy Scout.

[TD Owen]

You might be right. Maybe we should remind him that there is Legislation in the works to make falsly claiming to be a Veteran illegal.

It wouldn't matter to him anyway. He's been arrested so many times, what's once more.
