“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment
of religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof,
or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press, or
the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to
petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”

First Amendment
U.S. Constitution

Contemplate the words of Private Robert L. Hoover, a
WWII POW, Bronze Star, and Purple Heart recipient:

“LET THEIR VOICES BE HEARD.”

Soldiers Anthology

Our power of speech must be broadcast with respect for
others, self-confidence, self-respect, and dignity.

We have an obligation to be proactive. Take the
commitment to make a difference. All our Veterans
served to support and defend our liberty.

Do your part and carry their torch onward.

Our leaders must be held accountable to follow our
direction.

I have often been quoted as humbly saying:

“I continue to serve by speaking up and standing up for
what I believe is right and speaking out against what I
believe to be wrong.”
