US veteran stays firm on American flag
Cleveland Daily Banner - 4/8/2018
To The Editor:
I am very glad to hear from [Bradley County Commissioner] Dan Rawls in regard to the veterans, the bureaucracy, the debts we have and the unborn babies.
I should have written earlier [because] it has been going on for awhile, Dan.
The flag code clearly states how, and when, the exception is. Again, the flag should never be used in that manner in a local election.
I am proud of the veterans you know. I consider all of them heroes and friends.
I still say prayers for the ones that didn't come home.
I am still, and I still claim to be, a military veteran.
I am a life member of Vietnam Veterans Chapter 596 (in Cleveland), a life member of DAV Paul Jones Memorial Chapter 25, and SAR Cleveland chaplain, Col. Benjamin Cleveland.
I am very proud of our flag.
