Episode 112: A Tribute to My Son - A Vietnam Veteran →

A TRIBUTE TO MY SON:

A Vietnam Veteran

by Dr. Luetta G. Werner

Just why did you do it... go to war?

So many people wondered why

You volunteered to serve your country;

You left as a teen and said, "Good-bye."

To serve your country…that was your goal.

You believed the cause was to fight to win.

God was your quide and stayed by your side,

And you felt His great love again and again.

The scars of this war will always be there.

You went a teen and came back a man.

Faith in your god and prayer saw you through,

Love for your country and this prairie land.

May God bless all those who serve their country!

These thoughts by an unknown author, say it very well.
