Freedom's Source
It is the soldier*, not the reporter, who has given us the freedom of
the press
It is the soldier*, not the poet, who has given us the freedom of speech
It is the soldier*, not the campus organizer who has given us the
freedom to demonstrate
It is the soldier*, not the lawyer, who has given us the right to a fair
trial
It is the soldier*, who salutes the flag, who serves under the flag, and
whose coffin is draped by the flag, who allows the protester to burn the
flag
Were it not for the brave, there would be no land of the free
