Thank You Troops A question sir I pray to ask Whatever enticed you to this task? Here you are so far from home Unfamiliar lands you're forced to roam The sod beneath your feet is wet with the blood of comrades sweet perils and hardships grip you on every side from tears and guns you can not hide Daily when facing the foe you never know will this breath be my last? Please sir, why such a difficult task? “Good things my lad are hard to attain and freedom son comes with a stain This life I entered young and brave now I'm old and headed for the grave. But regret never will I tis' reward enough to see our flag fly A plea I have for all remember those who heeded the call See the flag up yonder? That's why I was willing to wander.“ the tears are flowing down my cheeks I try but I can not speak A message now I'll write or I shan't sleep tonight. A debt of thanks to you I owe and I long to tell you so. May heaven bless you each and every day Guide and protect you all the way. By Jenny Gane |

Keep praying for our troops.
I was chatting online with my son when all of a sudden ...poof...he was gone. It scared me and worried me. IT WAS BECAUSE WE LOST 4 MORE SOLDIERS OVER THERE ON THE 29TH. They always cut off internet when they lose troops, or something happenes that they cannot let it out on the net before they handle it internally. Please keep praying for them to return home safely.
