Remembering Their Sacrifice

A Soldier
 
There is a discipline in a Soldier.
You can see it when he walks.
There is honor in a Soldier.
You can hear it when he talks.
There is courage in a Soldier.
You can see it in his eyes.
There is loyalty in a Soldier,
that he will not compromise.
There is something in a Soldier
that makes him stand apart.
There is strength in a Soldier
that beats from his heart.
A Soldier isn't a title
any man can be hired to do.
A Soldier is the soul
of that man buried deep inside of you.
A Soldier's job isn't finished
after an 8 hour day or a 40 hour week.
A Soldier is always a Soldier
even when he sleeps.
A Soldier serves his country first
and his life is left behind.
A Soldier has to sacrifice what comes first
in a Civilian's mind.
If you are a Civilian-
I am saying this to you...
Next time you see a Soldier
remember what they do.
A Soldier is the reason
our land is "Home of the Free"
A Soldier is the one that is brave,
protecting you and me.
If you are a Soldier-
I am saying this to you...
Thank God for every Soldier!
Thank God for what you do!
