CaolinaJoe Posted September 10, 2004 Share Posted September 10, 2004 Steve Garvey "It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of thepress. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom ofspeech. It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who has given usthe freedom to demonstrate. And it is the soldier who salutes theflag, serves beneath the flag, whose coffin is draped by the flag, andwho allows the protester to burn the flag."Marine Chaplain Dennis Edward O' Brien Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WJMorris3 Posted September 13, 2004 Author Share Posted September 13, 2004 Okay, so Garvey was close in one respect - Garvey was the second person to do it. Rico Carty did it for Atlanta in 1970. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
