A Tribute to Combat Arms Soldiers

A Tribute to Combat Arms Soldiers
Over the ocean and far, far away,
lies a place filled with sorrow and murderous craze
Encircled by evil in mayhem’s dark night,
are a group of young men filled with courage and might
They seek not for power or fortune or fame,
but honor and hope and freedom from chains
With courage of lions they ride out in the storm,
to bring justice to madmen who’s souls have been torn
In battle heroes fall and a lone bugle sounds,
the places they gave all are now hallowed grounds
While some men pity them and say ‘what a shame’
the warriors will know their brothers died not in vain
Where ‘ere they are needed to quash evil’s foul blight,
these young men of valor will rise up and fight!
