Please spend some time today thinking about our men and women serving overseas.  Pray for them, if you are a person of faith.  If you do not adhere to a particular religion, please wish them well.  Positive thoughts are powerful, and the troops need our support now more than ever.  I want you to come home safely. 

 

For those who gave the ultimate sacrifice, and for their loved ones, this is a small electronic note of thanks.  Family members, nobody can feel as you feel.  My deepest commiseration goes out to you, as well as highest respect for those ultimate heroes; your loved ones; our guardians. 

 

This poem is dedicated to all the GotStang members who have served, or are currently serving, in our military. 

 

 

American metal does not break

These colors do not run

Molten, honed for freedom's sake

Tensile strength second to none.

 

You are asked to stand your ground 

Where demons fear to tread

As voices of your families resound

Inside your watchful head

 

Keep the faith, this too will pass

Hold on to what is real

Your inner strength is what will last

Through fortune's turning wheel.

 

Your valor in the face of fire

Does not go unsung here  

We ride behind you, tire to tire

Know that we hold you dear.
