Final Inspection~~The soldier stood and faced GOD, which must always come to pass. He hoped his shoes were shining as bright as his brass ? How shall I deal with you ? Have you always tiurned the other cheek ? To My Church have you been true ? "~~The soldier squared his shoulders and said " No LORD, I guess I ain't , because those of us that carry guns can't always be saints."~~I've had to work on Sundays and at times my talk was tough, and sometimes I've been violent , because the world is awfully rough."~~ But, I never took a penny that wasn't mine to keep. Though I worked a lot of overtime when the bills got just to steep.~~And I never passed a cry for help, though at times I shook with fear, and sometimes GOD forgive me I've wept unmanly tears.~~I know, I don't deserve a place among the people here. They never wanted me around except to calm their fears.~~If you've a place for me here, LORD, it needn't be grand, I never expected or had too much, but If you don't, " I'll Understand." ~~There was silence all around the throne where saints had often trod, as the soldier waited quietly for the Judgement of his GOD.~~" Step forward now, you soldier, you've borne your burden well. Walk peacefully on Heaven's streets, you've done your time in Hell."

EAGLES~~ To bring down evil, some must fall. To fight for right, some answer the call.~~To help the oppresses, some give up their time, their homes, their loves, they're eagels not doves.~~To keep peace for those in need, some go to wars of just we read.~~To keep us safe, it's soldiers we call. They will all give some and some will give all.Staff Sgt. Washington thank you for keeping me safe. Sydney Meyer Age 10 Louisville Ky. U.S.A. all the way.
