Young Warriors

You went forth young Ranger onto the battlefield,

Never to retreat, never to yield.

The cause is simple, keep America free;

Searching for the enemy wherever he may be.

Death on the battlefield is not noble or right,

It’s a destined fate when enemies fight.

You are now at war in a far off land;

Death and destruction will prevail, wars demand.

Your trained to be hardcore, the very best,

You have carried your CIB, pinned proudly to your chest.

We owe so much to you, our warriors at the gate,

We will always remember, whatever your fate.

You have shed your blood, you shed your tears,

You have faced your enemies, overcame your fears.

Without reservations you left your families at home,

Your country is behind you, you won’t be alone.
