Going into a war zone at barely 18.
He stands tall and proud, a marine.
He went in, he rescued, he secured.
He stands tall and proud, a marine.
He saw much, did much, fought hard, cried hard.
He stands tall and proud, a marine.
Wounded in battle, he did not retreat. Came home to protests & peace signs.
He stands tall and proud, a marine.
A purple heart he is awarded...and nightmares that reoccur.
He stands tall and proud, a marine.
Pain still shoots through his shoulder. He would not change a thing.
He stands tall and proud, a marine.
He taught his children to love their country, respect those who serve their country.
He stands tall and proud, a marine.
The flag waves, his hand over his heart...
He stands tall and proud, a marine.
Thank you Daddy...my tall and proud marine!
