THE VIETNAM WAR VET
By Rita J. Lammers

Men and women died in honor
In a land so far away
How do we explain the conflict
To the children of today.

When they look at us with wonder
"Tell us did we win the war
All these lives are gone forever
What was all the fighting for."

Drop down on a knee and tell them
All the Vets of Vietnam
Fought this fight for others freedom
No regard for their own harm.

All the names upon this wall
These people did not die in vain
For freedom's price throughout the
world Is living on in each one's name.

Valiantly they fought the fight
In that place across the sea
Sacrificed their lives so bravely
Trying to make others free.

They did not question should I go
They served with willingness and grace
To try and bring a taste of freedom
To another land and place.

We know from all their sacrifice
It takes a special kind of heart
To fight and help their fellow man
To care that much and do their part.

And if you do not understand
The price we pay for freedom yet
You'll find the answer living still
Within a Vietnam War Vet.

God Bless Our Great Military

As our Holy season approaches, we renew our prayers for our troops and their families. We are thankful for all of our men and women in uniform and for their service to not only this great land, but in protecting freedom all over the world.

We are grateful for those who have served before them. For had it not been for them.... we would not be free today.

Liberty will always prevail. Freedom is the light of the world.

God bless them one and all... and the very best of this Holiday season to everyone.

Our love and thanks... and prayers always,

*TT*, Beth & Nana
