Do You Know That the Only Ones Who Give Us Life and Liberty Are Our Service Members?

Question by Leonardo: Do you know that the only ones who give us life and liberty are our service members?
It’s the Soldier, not the reporter
Who has given us the freedom of the press.

It’s the Soldier, not the poet,
Who has given us the freedom of speech.

It’s the Soldier, not the politicians
That 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.

Best answer:

Answer by dstr
Freedom of the press is guaranteed by the constitution, not the solder, the Solders role is to protect and defend the constitution, from enemies both foreign and domestic.
