A Flag In Need
Mr. Moby, I want to say first of all that I'm a die hard American patriot and I've served with pride for the past 8 years in the Navy Reserves as a corpsman, the past three of those years has been with a USMC unit as their, "Doc". So with that said I want to confess something that I did a couple days ago, I'm doing this not because I got caught but to raise awareness to the fact that even us patriots can become complacent in our love for this great land and it's symbols of freedom. On Monday as I was heading to work listening to you on the radio I passed a little country church with a cemetery out to the side of it. On a utility pole @ the end of the driveway the church members had two American flags secured in brackets which had torn loose in the strong winds we had that morning. One of these flags had turned upside down and was starting to drag the ground. My first thought was to remove it from the bracket, properly wrap it around it's pole and find a place at the church to leave it so that someone would find it and even leave a note to let them know why it was taken down. Well needless to say I did none of these things. I was running a few minutes late for work and had a lot to do that day, so I drove on in hopes that someone would come along and take care of the flag. After I got to work, right on time, I had this nagging feeling that I should have been the one to stop. It was too late then I was at work and couldn't leave. Then I thought about a man named John Bradley, a Navy Corpsman like me attached to a Marine unit, who was in the battle for Iwo Jima in WWII. He was on Mt Suribachi when the U.S. flag was raised, as a matter of fact he's one of the men in the one of the most famous pictures of WWII, he was helping to raise that flag. I bet he'd have taken the time to take care of the flag that I and many others passed that morning. I can assure you that I'll never pass another," flag in need", without stopping to take care of that need. Whether it's in this great country or some other, I'll make sure that the,” Stars and Stripes" are treated and cared for properly. Not only the flag but all that she represents and I'll do my part to make sure that all, who want to live under her shadow and have the freedom to live their lives the way they choose, will be able to do so. May we always be,” One nation, under God. Mr. Moby thank you for all you've done and continue to do for those of us in uniform. You keep doing what you do, and me and those like me will make sure that you have the freedom to do it. YEAH BABY! Sincerely, RR P.S. If you should read this on the air I'd like to remain anonymous. Thanks.
