For my brother!

 Do Eagle’s Sing?

 

Along side an Eagle’s watchful eye

HE flew HIGH above the mountains

Never once did HE question why.

 

SPECIAL FORCES HE LEARNED MANY THINGS

A purple heart, earning HIS WINGS.

Effortless flight - Do Eagle's Sing?

 

Rescue missions beneath the blazing sun

Engulfed in its heat and GLORY

he’s Vietnam’s forgotten one.

 

memories safe in a shallow box

A last flight - an eternal fight

ETCHED IN BLACK GRANITE, HIS life.
