>From my Viet Nam Vet Friend Woods, Jimi USCG ITWPATWT 100% Vet I don't remember any expiration Date on my Oath to Service...
"The true soldier fights not because he hates what is in front of him, but because he loves what is behind him." G.K. Chesterton "If the representatives of the people betray their constituents, there is then no recourse left but in the exertion of that original right of self-defense...." Alexander Hamilton You are free to use as you see fit The eleventh day of the eleventh month By Woods Houghton The eleventh day of the eleventh month, The day is Veterans Day Why this day To take off time to play No! It is this day To stop and pray For those who have served, Those who are serving The family of those who gave everything to serve It was at the eleventh hour on the eleventh day of the eleven month Generals, Commanders, and the brass gathered To sign the end of the Great War The war to end all wars Almost 100 years ago It was not the end of all wars As a family at a small country Church gather Yes, another son will live without a father, Another good woman will live without a husband As the flag is folded and place in her hand A tear runs down the face of the man from whose hand it came The bugle makes it last call For the brave young man who answered the same call As those before It seem so inadequate to say Thank you for your sacrifice today So, take the time To give as they have given A moment at the eleventh hour Of the eleventh day Of the eleventh month To pray for those who serve Those left behind Those who will grow up alone Today, Veterans Day --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VFB Mail" group.
