To My Fellow Veterans

In the military Some you remember Some you forget But none more loyal Than a fellow vet To all the soldiers Of future, present, and past When courage reigned And fear stood fast The honor we display And the hell that we give Allow us our freedoms And rights to live To my fellow soldiers in uniform Valor and bravery are the norm It is to you I salute on this fine day Your sacrifice on the battlefield Is why I pray For your safe return So I can simply say…. Thank you Eric (and sometimes not)
