A VETERAN'S AND MEMORIAL DAY TRIBUTE
Whether Navy Blue
Or Army Green
Semper Fi or Soaring Wings.
Honor bright in hearts of gold
Love of country-
American Bold!
Heroes of all truth and light
Men who Live
And Die
And Fight
That all might live on freedom's soil
And then forget
The cost, the toil.
Whether Union Blue
Or Southern Gray
Iwo Jima or Bunker Hill
Tet, The Bulge or Belleau Woods
You Gave your all
Because you could
Heroes of all truth and light
Men who Live
And Die
And Fight
That all might live on freedom's soil
And then forget
The cost, the toil.
Whether Days or Years
Or Lives you Gave
This single day all year we give
Our Thoughts
Our Prayers
Our Heartfelt Thanks
That all might live on freedom's soil
And then forget
The cost, the toil.
Heroes of all truth and light
Men who Live
And Die
And Fight
That all might live on freedom's soil
And then forget
The cost, the toil.
For my faithful Brother, Kenny,
From your Loving and Grateful Sister, Cheryl
