In honor of my son, who served with the 5th Regiment of the First Marines
 Division, and all the troops doing their best for our country and allies in Iraq.

Our Troops
In Iraq

Marines mourning fellow Marines
Brave they stand
Giving each other a hand
As their efforts demand
Going forward by air, water, and land.

These are our daughters and sons
Taking aim with their guns
The pressure weighing tons
Being supported by their loved ones.

They never waver
Going forth as a savior
Always in our favor
Knowing none are braver.

They valiantly fight
For what is right
With all their might
Knowing they may never see the night.

Young women and men for all to see
Warriors they may be
They came across the sea
To make all in Iraq free!
