Remember

[Doc 2/47]

"Glory!?!Ain't no stinkin glory,Doc.I'm fightin for us-you,Bob and me-so we can go home and kick some hippy ass!"Harry Suttler '70

Remember
Hal keim



I've fought.
I've killed.
I've done my best,
But now a crimson tide ebbs from my chest
To wet the grass and stain the ground
While stinging flies swam all around
And man-made Hell tears at the sky
Heedlessly,while I lay and die
Cold
And alone
Half a world away from home.
Oh God!The pain.The Pain.The PAIN!
Twists my body,sears my brain.
Gasping breath through gnashing teeth;
The hand I long to hold is out of reach.

Now the lonliness,the chaos,the pain all begin to fade
And I find-to my surprise-that I am not afraid.
Now the darkness geathers.
I can no longer see.
My God.My Country

Hal, that was a very touching tribute. the hairs on the back of my neck stood on end and I think I got some dust in my eye too because it started watering.

We will remember buddy
