Memorial Day

Duty Honor Code their duty has always been paid They fight for our freedom so don’t ever let their memory fade They battle for the righteous cause and sometimes end up dead They endure hardships we cannot understand so recognize the blood they’ve shed They’re the men and women of the military Navy Air force Marines and Army This Memorial Day give thanks or remember a vet who has fought for our country They conqueror their fear and go into harms way for people who are oppressed or are suffering from neglect And all they are asking for from us is a little acknowledgement and common decent respect They’re the men and women of the military: Navy, Air Force , Marines, and Army This Memorial Day give thanks or remember a vet who has fought for our country They’re the men and women of the military Navy Air force Marines and Army This Memorial Day give thanks or remember a vet who has fought for our country So fly your flags with pride and wear your Red, White, and Blue But always think to yourself they are out there right now somewhere fighting for me and you They give everything that they have just for the sake of freedom’s price So reflect on what they’ve done for us with there ultimate sacrifice They’re the men and women of the military Navy Air force Marines and Army This Memorial Day give thanks or remember a vet who has fought for our country
