It is the Soldier
In Memorial Honor to COL Edward Eddie P Benezech Jr
U.S. Army and Louisiana National Guard
It's the Soldier,
not the pastor/preacher, who has given us freedom of religion and worship.
It's the Soldier,
not the reporter, who has given us freedom of the press.
It's the Soldier,
not the poet, who has given us freedom of speech.
It's the Soldier,
not the demonstration organizer, who has given us freedom to assemble and demonstrate.
It's the Soldier,
not the lawyer, who has given us the right to a fair trial.
It's the Soldier,
not the politician, who has given us the right to vote, ensures our right to Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness.
It's the Soldier, Who salutes the Flag, who serves beneath the Flag and whose coffin is draped by the Flag, who gives the protester the right to burn the flag.
The American Soldier does not fight because he hate who is in front of him; he fights because he love who is behind him.
ETERNAL REST GRANT HIM O LORD AND LET PERPETUAL LIGHT SHINE UPON HIM.
