It is the soldier, not the reporter,
Who has given us freedom of the press.
It is the soldier, not the poet,
Who has given us 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.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
