5-7-5

Flag of our father's
Fly proudly for a just cause
And a wise leader


The right to be free
Has been fought for many times
With no end in sight

 

Independence day
Calls for human sacrifice
We will pay the cost

etw-2009

Eileen, you have penned a fine tribute which serves as a message that will last as long as there is conflict. May we pray that day comes soon.

Like most of us, I have relatives that have fought in almost every conflict where freedom was challenged by an oppressive regime -- to them, to each and every person that has sacrificed for the principles of democracy, my undying appreciation on this Fourth of July - Eileen, your tribute is from the heart of a patriot -- peace and love my friend -- Jon Michael

Raising the flag in Iwo Jima those soldiers gave it the most proud moment, shouldn't we don't go back and start doing the same?

It is a heavy price for those who pay the real freight. Not so much for the rest of us freeloaders. Patrick
