"Dedicated to the men and women who honorably serve in the Armed Forces of the United States, past, present and future during war and peace. Their devotion to duty, since the birth of this nation, will never be forgotten."
Dedicated November 11, 2004
It Is The Soldier
It is the soldier, not the reporter
who has given us freedom of the press.
It is the soldier, not the campus organizer
who has given us the freedom to demonstrate.
It is the soldier who salutes the flag,
who serves beneath the flag,
and whose coffin is draped by the flag,
who allows the protester to burn the flag.
