This Is a letter I received Via E-Mail Which I beleve to Be Very Touching. It also Shows what Our Government thinks of our POW/MIAs and the men and women the fought and died to protect our freedom and the freedom of others Subject: THE WALL IS DESERTED AT NIGHT!! I went to the wall at 0100 in Wednesday, 29 July, 1998 and found myself to be the ONLY breathing soul there. The vets that promised to maintain a night vigil when it opened were all AWOL. The taxi driver who took me there, stopped long enough for me to conduct a civil visit, and was rewarded for his efforts with a $50 ticket for stopping in a no standing zone. So much for the respect and serenity I was hoping for, so now I get to voice how I feel regarding what happened: Where have all the people gone That used to stand at night Who stood the watch upon The Wall With those who fought the fight? There used to be so many I could see each way I'd face But tonight The Wall was silent As to memories I paced... No vets, no tourists, no breathing soul Was present in my haze Just me and the driver who got a ticket As I sobbed alone and traced. Where are they now those brave young men Who swore they'd stand so tall That NEVER would a sobbing vet Alone come face The Wall? I'm glad I came alone this night Because next week you see I would have drug a friend along Who's a lot worse off than me. The Walking Dead are walking still And will for years, I'm shown Until they finally face THEIR wall But they can't go alone. So stand aware, you vets and friends The lone wolf comes one night To face HIS hell so I hope you're back To stand his six in the fight.
