A Military Thanksgiving

We offer gratitude this day
For blessings multiplied,
For family, fellowship and friends
Who remain by our side

Through many separations,
And distances so vast
That lesser love would be subdued.
It's doubtful it would last.

We share these bonds of feeling
That stretch between our souls
When distance separates us
As we pursue our goals.

But you have favored us with friends,
And families that clutch
Us close although we wander
Around the globe so much.

So Lord this day we offer thanks,
And bow our heads in prayer.
We recognise that You're the source
Of all the love we share.

Greatest Generation-A D Day Tribute

Soldiers, Sailors and Airmen of the Allied Expeditionary Force!

You are about to embark upon the Great Crusade, toward which we have
striven these many months. The eyes of the world are upon you. The
hopes and prayers of liberty-loving people everywhere march with you.
In company with our brave Allies and brothers-in-arms on
other Fronts, you will bring about the destruction of the German war
machine, the elimination of Nazi tyranny over the oppressed peoples of
Europe, and security for ourselves in a free world.

Your task will not be an easy one. Your enemy is well trained, well
equipped and battle hardened. He will fight savagely.
-Dwight D. Eisenhower

Three hundred thousand a year.
They are dying in your hometown,
old men, all but forgotten.

We call them the Greatest Generation;
those that stormed the beaches
and faced the evil empire.
Now they are old men
in the twilight's glow,
slowly slipping away.

Three hundred thousand a year.
They are dying in your hometown,
old men, all but forgotten.

Sixty-five years ago today,
they stormed the beaches
at a place called Normandy.
Sixty-five years ago
they watched friends and brothers
stain the sea and sand
with their blood.

Three hundred thousand a year.
They are dying in your hometown,
old men, all but forgotten.

Upon this strip of land,
now covered with white crosses
and memories of darkness,
soldiers, sailors and airmen
paid the ultimate price
to invade and save
a foreign place.

Three hundred thousand a year.
They are dying in your hometown,
old men, all but forgotten.

Sometimes they can't talk
about the horrors left behind.
Sometimes tears come
and as quick go.
But memories don't fade easily
of the death that surrounded them
on a beach called Omaha.

Three hundred thousand a year.
They are dying in your hometown,
old men, all but forgotten.

At midnight on a moonless night,

D Day

I asked my wife if she knew what day it was.
"June 6th, Just another day I guess."

Do you know what happened to the boys
Drown and shot on Normandy's beaches
All those years ago,
You who value freedom?

We didn't hoist a flag high,
or stop in remembrance like we should.

Down in the bottom of a landing craft,
Doubtful of the outcome of invasion,
A thousand young men
Yield to orders and prepare to attack.

I guess we forget what came before
as we plan for our future.

Drab cliffs and beaches await,
Defended by an enemy strong
And eager to repel our advances.
Young American's died on this day in 1944.

It was the anniversary of D Day,
did you pause to remember on 6 June.

Do not forget the men and boys who died
Doing what their nation asked
Across the seas in 1944 or
Your American fighting men who answer the call today.

I asked my wife if she knew what day it was.
"June 6th, Just another day I guess."

Red Skies on Seven December

To the Congress of the United States:
Yesterday, Dec. 7, 1941 -
a date which will live in infamy...

Red morning sun rises
slowly over a sleeping bay.
War ships languish at anchor

The United States was at peace with
and, at the solicitation of Japan,
was still in conversation with the government
and its emperor looking toward the maintenance
of peace in the Pacific.

The world would change
with the rising of a red sun,
casting a long shadow.

The Japanese ambassador to the United States
delivered to the Secretary of State
a formal reply to a recent American message.
This reply stated that it seemed
useless to continue the existing diplomatic negotiations.
It contained no threat or hint of war or armed attack.

Bombs. Fire. Death. Destruction.
Torpedoes falling, guns blazing.
Red blood upon the Pacific.

It will be recorded that the distance of Hawaii from Japan
makes it obvious that the attack was deliberately planned
many days or even weeks ago.

The grounds shake with explosion
as people scramble
to escape, to defend
to live a moment longer
in the red morning light.

The attack on the Hawaiian islands
has caused severe damage
to American naval and military forces.
Very many lives have been lost.

The world turns on,
painting a different picture
of that December day.
For some, America was innocent,
for some her hands washed in red blood.

The facts of yesterday speak for themselves.
The people of the United States
have already formed their opinions
and well understand the implications
to the very life and safety of our nation.

Red morning sun rises
slowly over another day.
War seems such a way of life
that it's easy to forget
this tragedy after 67 years.

We will not only defend ourselves,
but will make very certain
this form of treachery shall never endanger us again.
Hostilities exist.
There is no blinking at this fact;
our people are in grave danger.
