We dare not believe that we are BORN with rights... those rights are EARNED through the death of those who believed so fervently in the nobility of the ideals so much so that they pledged "their lives and their sacred honor" to the protection of those rights. We dare not believe that the rights we have are GIVEN to us without responsibility. Each man, woman and child in this country has an obligation to those who die preserving that freedom to live free... ever mindful of the sweetness of the freedom they enjoy, for that sweetness was forged in the bitterness of battle.
