I am an American Soldier!
Category: Poetry
A poem with music elements about how divisive war can be and how we treat Veterans and what they believe! They didn't ask for pity - they didn't ask for praise They didn't ask for medals - or Military parades They didn't ask for sorrow - when we laid them in their graves They didn't ask to be called hero's - But that's what they became When Johnny came marching home that day, "OO-RAH","OO-RAH"! They gave him NO hearty welcome then, "OO-RAH", "OO-RAH"!

I wrote this song about his internment. Using my music and historical archived footage we did this video in memory of him and all the others who served.
