"It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us the freedom of the press. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us the freedom of speech. It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who gives 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 protestor to burn the flag."    
~Father Dennis Edward O'Brien

"The true soldier fights not because he hates what is in front of him, but because he loves what is behind him." - G.K. Charleston...January 14, 1911
