The American Soldier

We are all the colors a Patriot depicts, the red’s the blues and whites a mix. We honor the soldier’s creed till death, protecting our nation with every breath. Quitting is not an option you’ll see, for a soldier’s pride and honor succeeds. A soldier’s mission will always come first, hungering for freedom with a thriving thirst. The American Soldier, our warrior of choice, will serve their people will a victorious voice. They are comrades in arms, till the very end, no one left behind, fellow man they’ll tend. The American Soldier doesn’t accept defeat, heroically they’ll fight, in the cold and the heat. They are the guardians of freedom we forget, the American Soldier does not identify regret. Our way of life is because of their strength, for decades they’ve served at every length. The American Solder conveys honor and pride; for fallen soldiers, many tears they have cried. Honor our troops, for freedom is not free – it’s the American Soldier whose provided liberty. Take a moment to praise the dedication and pride, of the American Soldier that never dies…….

We've come a long way from minute men but keep a freshly inherited pride.
