Lost Helicopter Finally Found

Lost Helicopter Finally Found

There is this so sad thing we must admit
One of our helicopters into hillside had hit
And all lost their lives who were within
We pray this will never happen again.

Many emotions are at an all-time low
As all of our tears started to overflow
For pilot and passengers no longer here
We held in our arms and to us were dear.

God keep them safe and secure in heaven above
Also give each precious one all of our love
And even though this happened still yet
Regret this happened and will never forget.

James Thomas Horn, Retired Veteran and Poet

Leaving this Sunday for London and a cruise
on Royal Princess out of South Hampton to
Guernsey, Ireland, Scotland, Normandy and
return. Forgive me for not writing more poems.

Thank you so much you admirable poet. Only one thing though. There are no admirals in the Air Force. Ho Ho. Jim Horn
