"They has stood atop mountains of dead bodies, and helped to create them. They has wept in public and in private, for friends who have fallen in combatand is unashamed. They feels every note of the National Anthem vibrate through their body while at rigid attention, while tempering the burning desire to square-away' those around them who haven't bothered to stand,remove their hat, or even stop talking. In an odd twist, day in and day out, far from home, they defends their right to be disrespectful. Just as did our Father, Grandfather, and Great-grandfather, they are paying the price for our freedom. Beardless or not, they are not children. They are the American Fighting person that has kept this country free for over 200 years"
