Patriotism

Our country is not the only thing to which we owe our allegiance.  It is also owed to justice and to humanity.  Patriotism consists not in waving the flag, but in striving that our country shall be righteous as well as strong.  

Patriotism

I like to see a man proud of the place in which he lives.  I like to see a man live so that his place will be proud of him. 

~Abraham Lincoln

Because I'm A Soldier Born to Die..

A heart touching poem by a Soldier

If I die in a war zone,
Box me up n send me home,   

Put my gun on my chest,

And tell my mom i did my
best,
N tell my dad not to bow,
He will never get tension
from me now,
.
Tell my bro study perfectly
Keys of my bike will be
his permanently,
.
Tell my sis dont be upset,
.
Her bro will not rise after
this
sunset,
.
Dont tell my friends they are
hearties,
and start 2 ask for parties
.
Tell my LOVE not to cry....
.
Because I'm A Soldier Born
to Die..
