We Stood For Freedom
Roger J. Robicheau
Written by a veteran about veterans.
It also draws parallels to our brave serving today.
American troops never change in so many ways...
We stood for freedom just like you
And loved the flag you cherish too
Our uniforms felt great to wear
You know the feel, and how you care
In step we marched, the cadence way
The same is true with you today
Oh how we tried to do our best
As you do now, from test to test
How young we were and proud to be
Defenders of true liberty
So many thoughts bind soldiers well
The facts may change, not how we jell
Each soldier past, and you now here
Do share what will not disappear
One thought now comes, straight from my heart
For soldiers home, who’ve done their part
I’m honored to have served with you
May Godly peace, help get you through
And now I’ll end with a request
Do ponder this, while home at rest
America, respect our day
Each veteran, helped freedom stay
