D-DAY
April 4, 2009
WE SIT NERVOUSLY IN THE BOAT WAITING.
WE HEAR THE COMMAND: 15 SECONDS TILL DROP
THE GATES OPEN.
THE MASHINE GUNS ROAR LIKE LOINS!
ONLY FEW MAKE IT TO SHORE.
THE CRYS OF WOUNDED SOLDIERS DEFEN ME.
WE REGROUP HALF MY MEN ARE GONE.
WE RUSH TO THE SAND BAR.
FINALLY SOME COVER!
WE LAY THE CHARGES
BOOM!
WE RUN UP THE HILL
LIKE THE DEPTHS OF HELL WE CALL UP THE FLAMES AND TOCH THE TURETS.
FINALLY WE TAKE THE BEACH
THIS HELL IS OVER
THE MEN SIT AND REST
I LAY AWAKE WOUNDERING
WHEN
WHEN WILL THIS ALL BE OVER
