Veterans Day/Remembrance Day 11/11/11 #RemembranceSunday #RemembranceDay #VeteransDay #LestWeForget
To all those who have served their Country, both abroad and at home, we say Thanks.
In Honor of Veteran's Day, I'd like to share this poem.
In the Service of my Country by Scott Hazlinsky
In the service of my country, I have been prepared to give all
?
In the service of my country, I have had comrades fall
?
In deserts, and in mountains, in wadis filled with mud
?
Through the smoke and the gunfire, in orchards soaked with blood
?
In the service of my country, I have aged beyond my years
?
In the service of my country, I have faced my deepest fears
?
I have become closer than brothers, with those that I have served in war
?
It is for the men next to me, my brothers that I fight for
?
In the service of my country, I have often been away from home
?
In the service of my country, I have never been alone
?
The freedoms that we love, were earned by men like me
?
And we will keep on fighting, so we can all breathe free
?
In the service of my country, we do not ask a lot
?
Remember all our sacrifices, they should never be forgot
?
A 21 gun salute, a folded flag, the sweet melody of taps
?
Remember to honor the heroes of our country's past
?
