Always, They Came
They always came in answer to the call;
Day or night, they gave their all
In a fiercely earnest dash with death,
Racing to arrive while there was still breath
In men who were yesterday's boys…
Whose eyes had lost their joy…
Whether they were ‘Dustoff’ or ‘Medevac’
Wasn’t important to the men they took back.
As the saying goes, “What’s in a name?”
It was enough that, when called, they came.
