Fort Largs Stepping Out On Hallowed Ground

Will you step on the hallowed ground
With our brothers and sisters that were found
When we marched together as one
And our lives had just begun

Do you remember the morning parades
And the leave night escapades
The golden days when youth abounded
The feeling of a new life as you were astounded 

But the years have been unkind
And the hallowed ground has weeds entwined 
For us who were the lucky few
Close you eyes your memories won’t fade for you.
