In Harm's Way

From all walks of life they come,
From sea to shining sea.
They volunteer to go in harms way
To protect you and me.

These valiant men and women
Leave homes and loved ones, too,
To serve this country selflessly.
They’re heroes through and through

They march straight into battle
On ground or sea or air.
They steadfastly serve the USA;
A pride they all do share.

For each and every minute
They protect our freedom, yet
How many times do we think to say
“Thank you” to these brave vets?
