"For They Live On In Us"
I consider it an honor to be a member of this site... an 'asset'... I have, a new philosophy in these 'waning days' of my life. Came into this world with little and going out with less. Unfortunately, am in CGA ( congestive heart failure ) after a couple of major heart attacks. Still would climb out of bed for a good fight though! ( Lol! ) I have said in my profile all that I will. No 'wake' or 'funeral' for me when the day comes- per my request. I have... seen way too much in my life. Sometimes a 'burden' that is almost impossibly heavy. It broke my heart- what happened to 'Matt Lewellen, James Moriarty and Kevin McEnroe'... The 'video' ( supplied by the Jordanian Gov ) purports to show what happened.. And to a small extent- it does. Though no 'sound' and worse, no ( video ) from the guard-shack! Matt & James ( in vehicle #2 ) - I do not believe were entirely taken by surprise' and the missing video would show this.
Someone out there has this video ( if it has not been destroyed ).. Yes, it was 'planned' and it was an 'ambush' and as we all know- full 'testimony' is only 'partial'- due to 'politics' and sadly, due to 'orders' as to 'what to say.' This is something that as a young recruit 4-1/2 decades ago... I witnessed first hand.
By way of info on the 'lyrics' I posted- I found these on-line at Military.com and even found a video with the music/sung lyrics on Youtube. The person who wrote and recorded the song did so in about 2-hrs and played all the instruments and sang all the parts! I'd say the SF of music in that feat! Thanks for cutting & pasting the lyrics beneath mine. As I understand it.. the song and lyrics were meant to be a Tribute to our 3 brave comrades and all SF & Spec-Op's everywhere and can be distributed with the owners entire permission.. I only wish it had many thousands of 'views'... Best wishes to you.
