Please be sure to thank a Veteran today

Some time ago, I received the following in an e-mail from a friend. I think it bears repeating today on Veterans Day.

It's the Soldier, not the reporter
Who has given us the freedom of the press.
It's the Soldier, not the poet,
Who has given us the freedom of speech.
It's the Soldier, not the politicians
That ensures our right to Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness.
It's the Soldier who salutes the flag,
Who serves beneath the flag,
And whose coffin is draped by the flag.
On behalf of myself and Americans everywhere, The Second Chance Sheepdog would like to thank all U.S. military Veterans for the sacrifices they make protecting us and our Freedoms every day. May God Bless and protect you all. Come home safe.
