One of Our Own
At first the news is distant and vague, like many others…
- Another
soldier gone
- Dead
in a far off, foreign land
But to us, this one is different,
A familiar
face on the news
- He
is a Local Boy
- One
of Our Own…
Another citizen soldier sent off long ago, with best wishes
and Prayers...
- to
that distant, desert land
- never
ever to return
But to us, this one is different from the others
Not a
stranger from another town
- He
is a Local Boy
- One
of Our Own…
But in our hearts we know…
To Some One, Some Place
Each and Every One
- Is
a Local Boy
- One
of Our Own…
In memory of our own,
Sgt. Russell L. Collier
