He Stands for America

He stands and salutes the flag

A proud man who served his country

In Vietnam

His son fought

In Operation Storm.

He is a proud man

Sickened by the disrespect

For the very thing

He lost his right leg for

Our freedom.

He stands and salutes

The flag

A true American hero

Who stands

For freedom and faith.

Well done Michelle. Words cannot express how a US Veteran feels. You just have to experience it when the flag goes by and proper respect is shown by all. During this time, a tear from a Veteran's eye may fall.

Peace, love and blessings,

John Michael Domino
