	The American flag does not fly because the wind moves past it, the American flag flies from the last breath of each, military member who has died protecting it. A veteran is someone who, at one point in his life wrote a blank check Made payable to 'The United States of America ' for an amount of 'up to and including my life.' That is Honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it.
