Remembering Our Troops

And Lets All Think Of Our Troops !!! 
 


   

I PLEDGE ALLEGIANCE TO THE  
FLAG,

OF THE
UNITED
STATES OF  AMERICA ,

AND TO THE REPUBLIC, FOR
WHICH IT  STANDS,

ONE
NATION UNDER  GOD
,

INDIVISIBLE, WITH  
LIBERTY

AND JUSTICE FOR ALL!  



For All of our other  military personnel, where ever they may Be.
Please Support all of the troops defending our  Country.






And  God Bless our Military who are protecting our Country for our Freedom.
Thanks To them, and their sacrifices we can celebrate the 4th of July.





We must never forget  who
Gets the credit for the freedoms we have, of which we should be  
Eternally grateful.


I watched the flag  
Pass by one day,
It fluttered in the breeze.




A young Marine Saluted it,
And then he stood at ease..

I looked at Him in uniform
So young, so tall, so proud,
With hair cut square  
And eyes alert
He'd stand out in any crowd.




I thought how many men Like him
Had fallen through the years.
How many died on foreign Soil
How many mothers' tears?



How many pilots' planes Shot down?
How many died at sea
How many foxholes were soldiers' Graves ?
No, freedom isn't free

I heard the sound of Taps One night,
When everything was still,
I listened to the bugler Play
And felt a sudden chill.

I wondered just how many  times
That Taps had meant 'Amen,'

 

When a flag had draped a Coffin.
Of a brother or a friend.


   

I thought of all the Children,
Of the mothers and the wives,
Of fathers, sons and Husbands
With interrupted lives.

I Thought about a  graveyard
At the  bottom of the sea



Of unmarked graves in Arlington .
No, freedom isn't free.




Enjoy Your Freedom
& God Bless  Our Troops

When You read this, please  stop for a moment And

Say a Prayer for our servicemen.

Of all the gifts you could give A US Soldier,

Prayer is  the very best gift that you can give.
