Conversation To Decoration

It started with conversation By out of work frustration Heading the way of desperation As they filled in their application Many would lack education Would it lead to their great expectation By training induced concentration Next day they reach preparation We needed no invitation To war went this modern invasion Many came back in transformation Whilst thousands reached termination And all this for administration Who say thank you with a decoration

As Memorial Day approaches, I was moved by this outstanding tribute to our military. Those young people who can't afford to go to college and have trouble finding work as the unemployment rate remains high often turn to careers in the armed services. We could not survive without the work they do. Congratulations on taking second place in the contest, James. Love, Carolyn

James, I'm back in the 60's listening to Edwin Starr, CS&N, Credence and Buffalo Springfield. You know the songs. Thank you for reminding me it's "DEJA VU" all over again. Lad, for me the last four lines really say it all. These were heartfelt words reaching from Scotland to the midwest. Both sides of the pond are affected. Thank you. JT
