De Oppresso Liber - Letter to Colin Kaepernick from Nate Boyer.

An open letter to Colin Kaepernick, from a Green Beret-turned-long snapper Nate Boyer.

I'd hate to simply post snippets of the letter, as it should be read in its entirety. It is a good read from a unique perspective. https://www.armytimes.com/articles/nate-boyer-colin-kaepernick-commentary-flag-national-anthem-protest-nfl


San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick, middle, kneels during the national anthem Thursday. Nate Boyer is standing to his left.

Folks seem more focused on the act, than they do on the reason why. Mr. Boyer is truly a class act.
