In light of the Democratic National Committee using a video that desecrates our nation’s flag to make a point about government run health care, I would like to share a letter to the editor from my local newspaper from three of my old high school friends who now serve and protect our country.
Thank God our military men and women understand what the flag means. I hope someday the Democratic Party will understand as well.
To the editor:
The Old Settlers’ Day parade was Sept. 26, and as always it was an impressive showing of old cars, motorcycles and floats.
At the front of this procession, and in keeping with a time-honored tradition, stood the Color Guard — comprised of multiple veterans. One veteran served more than 50 years ago in the Korean War and still proudly and willingly escorts his nation’s colors today.
Another veteran has replaced his military uniform with a suit and tie to honor the same colors he served under in Vietnam.
As any Veteran would tell you, it is always an honor to carry our flag whether it be on the battlefield or down Main Street in “small town America.”
