(For CSM Richard Webb)
David J Walker
He was a soldier
Who knew he beat the odds
Yet answering to the
gods of the Elysian Field
One day he would yield
His dog-tags and
Turn in his guns
And lay down to rest with
The rest of his brothers in arms
?He is Trouncing
Wonderful Ben we have been seeing
Wonder how many are actually believing
From one story to another has been bouncing
Yet rest of candidates still is trouncing.
All over news he currently is broadcasted
Truly amazing how long he has lasted
While we sit here completely spellbound
Surprised at what we heard from every sound.
Then there are those who love to be lying
Never telling truth and then always alibiing
To no rules at all applies any adherence
Can't imagine him having a security clearance.
Not only good heaven but also some grief
Ole Ben being our new Commander in Chief
Would never salute and like the other way
Economy ended up in complete, total disarray.
We were having an IG inspection for the first time
when I was the unit administrator. We also had a
new supply sergeant. The CSM performing the
inspection said that he found the supply room
incomplete, total disarray. This is when I did
decide this is the worst things could ever get.
