The combat soldier has several lives.
One he is living in combat with other men.
The other is his life before the war.
Twelve years of schooling was most of it.
Sure there were a number of girls
Who crossed my path and I followed.
One that I really liked a lot.
As soon as the war was over, I married her.
It took me thirty years to lose those war years.
My nerves were pretty much shattered.
Somehow I lived a normal life
With a wonderful woman, my wife.
Love ya!
