Soldier # 18

The first to get in 

and last to get out whether dead or alive.

A doctrine to follow

A state to defend

A country to die for

From the moment you accepted this vocation

until your last breath 

You are for a big purpose.

A salute to all those brave men and women
in uniform.

* This goes out to all those who are in the regular, reserve and militia forces all over the world.
