got a pocket full of sand,
M16 in my hand,
hear the cannons to the rear,
wish to hell I wasn't here...
mama mama, don't you cry,
Engineers, they never die,
they just slowly fade away,
live to fight another day...
it's never to early to raise a beer for the Engineers-
here's to the 23rd Engineer Company (Heavy), Charlie Co., 802nd Engineer Battalion, and HHC, 326th Engineer Battalion...sometimes I really miss my contact maintenance truck...
Done deal on the beer. I work nights anyway so this is my evening time.
Alpha Co, 2nd training Bgd. Ft. Leonard Wood, MO. ("fort lost-in-the-woods")
Echo Co, 12th Engr. BN. 8th.ID. F.R.G. "Dual Primed!"
Echo Co, 8th. Engr. BN. 1st. Cav. Ft. Hood, TX.
I love the life I have now, but I miss the service every day.
