He country as flag

He gets up and leaves all of the comforts of his home
He travels to his new bunk
He is now no longer alone
He runs, runs, and runs
He studies, studies, and studies
He trains, trains, and trains
He gets ordered, and yelled at
Until his ways are no longer his very own
He is not just he
He is joined by her
She is joined by them
And they are all united together
Because they are all our soldiers of our United States of America
Whom all serve and sacrifice for us all
So that they are never alone

Author's Note...This poem is dedicated to the memory of my late mother Deborah Drewery who served honorably in the army in Germany during Vietnam war as a nurse. And, to my beloved fianc� Morris Martin, who served very bravely in the army on tour in Iraq and Kuwait doing the very dangerous job of driving supply trucks over enemy lines. I love you both for your sacrifice.
