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!
