A SALUTE TO OUR VETERANS

by Greg Asimakoupoulos

Veterans, we salute you all. You who answered freedom's call. Some were killed and others maimed.

All dressed for our success. Uniform conformityto the cause of liberty. You marched lockstep into warknowing all the risks.

Overlooked and underpaidyou deserve a grand parade. Those who criticize the price are sadly often wrong.

Once a soldier, always one. Even when your job's been done.
You have earned the right to bea soldier all your life.
