RESPECTING OUR UNSUNG HEROES
© Copyright 2013 R. L. King

Every holiday that you enjoy with family and friends, please remember that there are thousands of soldiers, sailors, marines and airmen, men and women alike, far from home wishing they could be with their families as well.  Likewise, on every holiday there will be thousands of men and women police, fire and medical staffers, on duty. 

Please also remember that regardless of the rank they held while they served, all of our veterans are deserving of your utmost respect. A “thank you for serving” is never out of order.  Whenever the opportunity presents itself, please support them and their families.

UNSUNG HEROES
© Copyright 2013 Richard Lee King

To those who’ve fought the enemy and lived to come back home,
those who’ll spend their years reliving the horrors they have known.

To those who slept in foxholes and those who drove the tanks,
those who protect our freedoms  ….to you we give our thanks.

To those who chase the criminals or pursue a speeding car,
who watch over us each day, yet we know not who you are.

To those who drive the fire trucks and run in to put out the flames,
who risk your lives each day, though we seldom know your names.

To those who drive the ambulance or care for the infirmed
…those who make a difference, our respect you all have earned.

To you, our unsung heroes …and to all of your alums,
as your dedication we applaud, we shall all have upturned thumbs.

Here’s to you.
