No Keith, I don't. I normally don't care for poetry but when this was sent to me it stood out and touched me. To me it stood for all the servicemen that went about their job and did what they were told to do. After discharge they went about their business and didn't expect to cash in on their sacrifice.

I just saw that you found it Keith, thanks. Recognition needs to be correctly addressed.

I see that the author was Canadian. In 1966 we had a Canadian going through the USMC boot camp after he had served
d 8-10 years as a Canadian Marine. I asked him why joined the USMC and he said tha the wanted to go to Vietnam. The Canadians are TRUE American friends.

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
