D-Day Plus 80

D-Day + 80

They came as boys
but left as men.
Their prayers cried,
please not again!!!

When war intrudes
young lives transcend.
Lives marching forth, 
as others end.

With hate and vile
come enemies,
to kill and maim;
atrocities.

Can peace prevail
when hatred boils?
The soldier cares
not for the spoils. 

American soldiers were never invaders or occupiers.  They have always moved as liberators.
