Fighting for Freedom in the Military

This is not my usual cut and paste from the HuffPo, but straight out of Veterans Today…

On May 13, 2010, about eighty soldiers, stationed at Fort Eustis while attending a training course, were punished for opting out of attending one of these Christian concerts. The headliner at this concert was a Christian rock band called BarlowGirl, a band that describes itself as taking “an aggressive, almost warrior-like stance when it comes to spreading the gospel and serving God.”

This has been covered by the left press, but Veterans Today goes into more detail. Soldiers serving in the military give up a lot of the liberties we enjoy, but freedom of religion is not one of them. Thank you to all of the eighty soldiers who stood up for the rights of all of us.
