I AM THE INFANTRY

I AM THE INFANTRY -- QUEEN OF BATTLE!
FOR TWO CENTURIES I HAVE KEPT OUR NATION SAFE,
PURCHASING FREEDOM WITH MY BLOOD.
TO TYRANTS, I AM THE DAY OF RECKONING;
TO THE SUPPRESSED, THE HOPE FOR THE FUTURE.
WHERE THE FIGHTING IS THICK, THERE AM I ..
I AM THE INFANTRY!

FOLLOW ME!

IN VIETNAM, WHILE OTHERS TURNED ASIDE, I FOUGHT THE LONGEST FIGHT,
FROM THE CENTRAL HIGHLANDS TO THE SOUTH CHINA SEA
I PATROLLED THE JUNGLE, THE PADDIES AND THE SKY
IN THE BITTER TEST THAT BELONGS TO THE INFANTRY!

FOLLOW ME!

ALWAYS READY... THEN, NOW, AND FOREVER.
I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

12 Jul 2004

It broke my heart to see my name on the Wall.
I will pray for you, Jack Elsworth Schultz.
Welcome home, Brother!

From a VietNam Veteran, USAF, DaNang, VietNam, Dec.67-Dec 68,
