en It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us the freedom of the press. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom of speech.

That flag flew from the gun turret right behind my head and it was shot through and through and tattered, but it never ceased to wave in the wind. It draped the caskets of men that I served with and friends I grew up with.

en The flag went up very fast, in violation of historic district laws. I'm not sure how it happened. But all this fervor could have been prevented. Unfortunately, people focused on the flag, not the issue of the procedures. Our procedures are no less important than any other board or commission.
