Lz X-Ray

La Drang valley 65 with air support we stay alive The VC out number 5 to 1 The Lz X ray over run the stench of death hangs in the air Fallen soldiers everywhere Bullets crack and shatter bones Piecing screams and dying groans napalm dancers lose there skin Burning faces shrink and grin 3000 strong they Came in waves To meet the shells that dug there graves No time to say there last good byes As He’ll fire rained from swarming skies Col more the last to leave the first to land the first to grieve The Lessons learnt would turn the tide A small victory for all those who died The war was never going to end now they know how to defend Still more troops were sent in vain More blood was spilled more hurt more pain 10 more years till sense prevailed For all who tried but sadly failed This war was wrong and now it’s clear Don’t live in judgment or in fear We all have the right to make a choice Live together have one voice Or have the freedom to evolve Question figure and resolve A different opinion a different law It’s definitely not worth killing for
