The Unsung Heros

It does not matter!!! For every soldier living or dead Is a hero in my head. It doesn’t matter whether they was on the front lines Fighting the war- or in the back lines working at S-4 (supplies) They all contributed in some way To keep our freedom safe from day to day. The army, air force, navy, marines In our battles they are seen. Men, women, both alike fighting to keep us safe at night. They joined the military so that our country could be free And to protect you and me. The medics who struggle to keep us alive Not knowing if we’ll live or die. From the cooks who supply us with the food we eat Which may have been your neighbor from down the street? Everyone had a job to do, and every one followed through. You don’t have to be with a rifle in your hand It doesn’t make you LESS of a woman or a man. We are covering each other’s backs Now tell me!! What can be better than that! So I honor all of them – for they are my brothers and sisters till the end. “FREEDOM ISN’T FREE “
