That was awesome! This is DH's favorite;


Fighting soldiers from the sky
Fearless men who jump and die
Men who mean just what they say
The brave men of the Green Beret

Silver wings upon their chest
These are men, America's best
One hundred men will test today
But only three win the Green Beret

Trained to live off nature's land
Trained in combat, hand-to-hand
Men who fight by night and day
Courage peak from the Green Berets

Silver wings upon their chest
These are men, America's best
One hundred men will test today
But only three win the Green Beret

Back at home a young wife waits
Her Green Beret has met his fate
He has died for those oppressed
Leaving her his last request
Put silver wings on my son's chest
Make him one of America's best
He'll be a man they'll test one day
Have him win the Green Beret.

Silver wings upon their chest
These are men, America's best
One hundred men will test today
But only three win the Green Beret.

After
all these years it still makes me cry.

I'll bear that in mind.
I don't suppose they mentioned what the cause of death was for the men? Murder perhaps?

Got to do a coop move tomorrow. Nolia has got roundworm and I think Hinge may have as well. I'm going to have to get some help. I need to burn the ground at the old coop site as well as move the coop. June, not the best time to be lighting fires.

Yikes! I probably don't need to tell you to be careful.

Why?

I am completely ignorant on whatever the deal is there.

A beret was earned by a select few. It signified the best of the best. Then they decided to make it standard issue. Its insulting.
