TOMMYby Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936) I went into a public-'ouse to get a pint o' beer,
The publican 'e up an' sez, "We serve no red-coats here."
The girls be'ind the bar they laughed an' giggled fit to die,
I outs into the street again an' to myself sez I:
O it's Tommy this, an' Tommy that, an' "Tommy, go away";
But it's "Thank you, Mister Atkins", when the band begins to play,
The band begins to play, my boys, the band begins to play,
O it's "Thank you, Mister Atkins", when the band begins to play.
I went into a theatre as sober as could be,
They gave a drunk civilian room, but 'adn't none for me;
They sent me to the gallery or round the music-'alls,
But when it comes to fightin', Lord! they'll shove me in the stalls!
For it's Tommy this, an' Tommy that, an' "Tommy, wait outside";
But it's "Special train for Atkins" when the trooper's on the tide,
The troopship's on the tide, my boys, the troopship's on the tide,
O it's "Special train for Atkins" when the trooper's on the tide.
Yes, makin' mock o' uniforms that guard you while you sleep
Is cheaper than them uniforms, an' they're starvation cheap;
An' hustlin' drunken soldiers when they're goin' large a bit
Is five times better business than paradin' in full kit.
Then it's Tommy this, an' Tommy that, an' "Tommy, 'ow's yer soul?"
But it's "Thin red line of 'eroes" when the drums begin to roll,
The drums begin to roll, my boys, the drums begin to roll,
O it's "Thin red line of 'eroes" when the drums begin to roll.
We aren't no thin red 'eroes, nor we aren't no blackguards too,
But single men in barricks, most remarkable like you;
An' if sometimes our conduck isn't all your fancy paints,
Why, single men in barricks don't grow into plaster saints;
While it's Tommy this, an' Tommy that, an' "Tommy, fall be'ind",
But it's "Please to walk in front, sir", when there's trouble in the wind,
There's trouble in the wind, my boys, there's trouble in the wind,
O it's "Please to walk in front, sir", when there's trouble in the wind.
You talk o' better food for us, an' schools, an' fires, an' all:
We'll wait for extry rations if you treat us rational.
Don't mess about the cook-room slops, but prove it to our face
The Widow's Uniform is not the soldier-man's disgrace.
For it's Tommy this, an' Tommy that, an' "Chuck him out, the brute!"
But it's "Saviour of 'is country" when the guns begin to shoot;
An' it's Tommy this, an' Tommy that, an' anything you please;
An' Tommy ain't a bloomin' fool -- you bet that Tommy sees!

Early one morning after he raised the flag, the workmen arrived. As he saluted, they pounded into the ground the two foot square No Trespassing sign. Moments later they called the Sheriff's department and held Thomas there until they arrived. The city code enforcer ordered a citation to be issued for Thomas Northcut for trespassing. Thomas crumpled it into his pocket and went back to his duties, guarding the monument.
He was not doing anything wrong, so the government came along and made him a criminal.

ALERT!!!!! I just spoke to Mr Georges on the phone. He was very happy to hear from me. HOWEVER the city workers have filed a complaint that T.J. Is a dangerous dog and may not be released! They say that since the dog has barked at them he is a danger.
Mr Georges would like us to mail, email and call the mayor ASAP.

Anyone know the names of the bureaucrats/politicians who gave the order to have this vet harassed by the powers of the government?

This is horsesh*t! Solana Beach in the People's Republic of Kalifornia needs to get a life! Our brother shouldn't have been persecuted like this. I am going to write to the President about this one!

Thanks for posting this. What an outrage! It reminds me of the story in the Bible about the king stealing the poor man's vinyard.
PS: I wrote to thank Jennifer and Sam. Good to know there are a few stalwart souls left.

B4Ranch,thank you for posting this,and thanks for the heads up 68-69TonkinGulfYatchClub.
Jennifer Lynch, Thank you for representing Mr. Northcut. If you read this, please give him the following message.
Dear Mr. Northcut,
I salute you sir! You should be given back your dog immediately, and receive a public apology. They should also allow you to return to your post. How dare they treat you this way! For what? Guarding a War Memorial, and raising and lowering our flag? SHAME ON THEM! Thank you sir for your contribution to our country, May God Bless You!
Warmest Regards,
BIS
