This is a poem being sent from
a Marine To his Dad. For those
who take the time to read it, you'll
see a letter from him to his dad
at the bottom. It makes you truly thankful for not only the Marines,
 but ALL of our troops.

THE MARINE

We all came together,
Both young and old
To fight for our freedom,
To stand and be bold.

In the midst of all evil,
We stand our ground,
And we protect our country
>From all terror around..

Peace and not war,
Is what some people say.
But I'll give my life,
So you can live the American
way.

I give you the right
To talk of your peace.
To stand in your groups,
And protest in our streets.
[cid:4.3822575760 at web39405.mail.mud.yahoo.com]
But still I fight on,
I don't bitch, I don't whine.
I'm just one of the people
Who is doing your time.

I'm harder than nails,
Stronger than any machine.
I'm the immortal soldier,
I'm a U..S. MARINE!

So stand in my shoes,
And leave from your home.
Fight for the people who hate
you,
With the protests they've shown.
Fight for the stranger,
Fight for the young.
So they all may have,
The greatest freedom you've
won.
[cid:5.3822575760 at web39405.mail.mud.yahoo.com]
Fight for the sick,
Fight for the poor.
Fight for the cripple,
Who lives next door.
[cid:6.3822575760 at web39405.mail.mud.yahoo.com]
But when your time comes,
Do what I've done.
For if you stand up for freedom,
You'll stand when the fight's
done.

Hey Dad,
Do me a favor and label this 'The Marine' and send it to everybody
on your email list. Even leave this letter in it. I want this rolling all
over the US and Canada and The World. I want every home
reading it. Every eye seeing it. And every heart to feel it. So can
you please send this for me? I would but my email time isn't that
long and I don't have much time anyway.
You know what Dad? I wondered what it would be like to truly
understand what JFK said in his inaugural speech. 'When the time
comes to lay down my life for my country, I do not cower from
this responsibility. I welcome it.' Well, now I know. And I do.. Dad,
I welcome the opportunity to do what I do. Even though I have left behind a beautiful wife, and I will miss the birth of our first born child, I
would do it 70 times over to fight for the place that God has made
for my home. I love you all and I miss you very much. I wish I
could be there when Sandi has our baby, but tell her that I love her,
and Lord willing, I will be coming home soon. Give Mom a great
big hug from me and give one to yourself too.
Aaron
Please let this marine (and all our military) know we care by passing
his poem onto your friends even if you don't usually take time to
forward mail...do it this time!
Thanks,
Let's help Aaron's dad spread the word .......FREEDOM isn't FREE
Someone pays for you and me.

God bless you!
