No Matter the Cost
Some wear the blends of foliage
Some wear the shades of sand
Others wear the colors red, white and blue
But they all are proud to take the stand.
Some prepare with their feet on the ground
Some prepare soaring high up in the clouds
Others prepare by floating on oceans and seas
But they all are proud to share the same command.
Some are daughters and sons
Some are husbands and wives
Others are friends and neighbors
But they all are proud to protect our land.
Some have families scared to leave them behind
Some have no one and are lonely inside
Others have nightmares when they close their eyes
But they all are proud to fight for our freedom at hand.
