The Incredible Ruck

His eyes get bloodshot!
Fight engorges his body!
He roars and defends!

Enter his red zone
To hurt or help... be dismayed!
His attack strengthens!

He pays back double!
He avenges his soul's sake!
He cools down in days.

Premium Member Twenty Years and Rotsa Ruck

Where would the South Koreans be
  If the USA had left 'em high and dry by '73

And can you imagine West Germans' lives
  If America had cleared out by '75

But 20 years for the Afghans was just too long
  Who else think the Boomers got it wrong

Ruck Now, Cry Later

I don't know what's wrong
But I know it could be better
I don't miss my home
My sister or my mother
But still I feel alone
And don't know if it gets better
I went to sick call yesterday
Corporal Gonzalez said rate the pain
I said "maybe 3", he said "9 pills a day"
I know I'm in pain, but I don't feel the ache
I notice when my limbs stop bending
But don't know if its numb or stinging
Not until PT makes me cry
But I must be fine to have covered 30 miles
Why am I crying?
