I was that what others did not want to be
I went where others feared to go
I did what others failed to do
I Asked Nothing
From those who gave nothingI solemnly accepted the thought of eternal loneliness and despair
I have seen the face of evil
Felt the sting of hate and terror
I have cried, prayed and hoped
But most of all....
I have lived times others would say were best forgotten
At least I am proud to say
That I am proud of what I amI Am An American Soldier
