Honor the Veteran – White Springs, Florida

Zfopm6MKHKbOB58l.jpg

Each Veterans day for the past three years Sue and I have had the privilege to attend a Veterans Day memorial at a campground in White Springs, Florida.  The owner of the campground is Navy veteran and the campground has adopted a Veteran’s assisted living facility in the community. The campground, joined by a number of Airstream owners, help raise funds to provide dental services to the Veterans who live in the assisted living facility.  Join us this Veterans day to thank a Veteran for our freedoms.

                                                                What Is A Veteran?

A “Veteran” is someone who, at one point in their life, wrote a blank check made payable to “The United States of America”, for an amount of “up to, and including their life”.

It is the VETERAN, not the Preacher, who has given us Freedom of Religion.

It is the VETERAN, not the Reporter, who has given us Freedom of Press.

It is the VETERAN, not the Poet, who has given us Freedom of Speech.

It is the VETERAN, not the big man on campus, who has given us Freedom of Assembly.

It is the VETERAN, not the lawyer, who has given us the Right to a Fair Trial.

It is the VETERAN, not the Politician, who has given us the Right to Vote.

It is the VETERAN, who salutes the flag, who has served their country and earned the privilege, to fire their rifle and salute a Friend and a Flag draped on their coffin on their journey to their God.

With this in mind, thank a veteran for the Freedoms.
