God Bless,Rest in Peace Warrior...........

He was just a simple soldier and his ranks are growing thin
But his presence should remind us; we may need his like again,
For when countries are in conflict, then we find the soldier's part
Is to clean up all the troubles that the politicians start.
If we cannot do him honor while he's here to hear the praise,
Then at least let's give him homage at the ending of his days.

Perhaps just a simple headline in the paper that might say:
OUR COUNTRY IS IN MOURNING, FOR A SOLDIER DIED TODAY. (author unknown)

The passing of our soldiers often go unnoticed and unsung by most of the world, remembered only by family and friends. Wish it were not so. May he RIP, his family will be in my thoughts and prayers.

Big Teddy

What a wonderful memory and storyline your mother served for the rest of us veterans. I wish there were more emphasis by journalists, authors, and readers alike on the impact that courageous women like your mother made on the generations after her. Simply outstanding! You must be very proud and understandably so. Great post. Rest in Peace.

As stated before thank you for sharing. She sounds like an incredible lady and Lt.!

A comfort to many and with your proximity to the water may be meaningful is "Toilers of the Sea". Wishing you peace.
