Our Many Military Memories

Our Many Military Memories Many military memories were made, And into past, none of them will fade, Lasting forever which was day by day; Even after they have passed away. Things occurred each year after year, In an awesome, mighty military career; Helicopter blades did swirl and swirl That would make all of our hair curl. Bodies on battlefield badly bleeding; Others an entire platoon were leading; Soldier was a clerk typing up an order; We were here at home being supporter. Soldiers and sailors soon sailed out to sea; In newspapers and books had made history; Coast appeared with shells and soft sand On a lonely beach head did have to land. We would see headstones of dead on a Field, Said prayers at church service as we kneeled; We will fervently worship each and everyone; Thank God for the things that He has done. James Thomas Horn RiverSea Plantation Bolivia, NC Retired Veteran
