What We American Soldiers Stand For Picture by Pinterest -:- A Story of an American Soldier ~ + ~ When I decided to become a soldier I took an oath, The same oath every branch of military takes, This oath that we freely take does not expire Once we exit the military, it goes like this. I do solemnly swear that I will support And defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies foreign or domestic; That I will bear true faith and allegiance to the Same and that I will obey the Orders of the President of the United States and the orders of Officers appointed over me, according to the Regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God. -:- Here is what you see in me as a solder. There is discipline in me as a soldier You can see in me when I walk; I walk is a little taller now. There is honor in all I do as a soldier You hear it when I talk, listen to me. There is a new found courage in me as a soldier You can see it in my eye’s, there is no backing down. There is something in me as a soldier That make me stand apart from other men; There is a new found strength in me as a soldier That beats deep inside of my heart now! A soldier isn’t the title of any man or woman That can be hired to do, very few do so; A soldier is the very soul of that man or woman That is buried so deep inside of him. A soldier is always a soldier even when time is done He or she will never be able stand by when needed. A soldier always serves his country first The rest of his life he or she has to leave it all behind. A soldier has to sacrifice what never Come first into a civilian mind. If you are a soldier I am saying this to you, May God Bless and thank you for each and every soldier. Because some gave it their all… Steve L. Siegel Feb. 11, 2016
