FAR and DISTANT SHORES

By RONALD W. MACKEDANZ


In 1968, brave young men flew off to war.

To fight and die for freedom, on some far and distant shore.

As their fathers had before them gone, in 1942.

They shed their blood, and some men died, just for me and you.

Now under God, this great Nation stands, a tribute to them all.

When our country needs brave men to fight, our best will answer the call.

Some will return, to enjoy a life with their family and a wife.

Grateful, now should we all be, for those, who gave their life
