Tribute to Veterans

Let flags wave in every breeze of thought.

Some gave all that was expected of them.

Many gave all they could.

Others gave everything.

A history of sacrifice whenever they were

needed, wherever called to serve.

Collectively Duty, God, and Country prevailed.

Veterans stand for freedom and stand down

for peace. Horror of war and strife could not

bend the will of responsibility.

Veterans ask nothing for the chance to serve,

only your remembrance for those who gave the

ultimate sacrifice.

Veterans would do it again without fear or trepidation.

Freedom is guaranteed by our constitution, for

everyone we know; and those we don’t.

Serving isn’t just our duty, but also an obligation

to our children, our family, our future, and ourselves.

God Bless America

God Bless our Military

God Bless our Memory

So no one is ever forgotten, or without our thanks.

R.E. Smith, Redmond
