LEN IS MY BROTHER AFTER VISITING THE WALL , I WROTE THIS POEM FOR HIM AND ALL THE OTHER BRAVE MEN AND WOMEN WHO SERVED THIS GREAT AND WONDERFUL COUNTRY. I STILL MISS HIM AND ALWAYS WILL.
HIS NAME IS ETCHED IN BLACKEND STONE HIS NAME I SEARCHED TO FIND A SOLDIER YES BUT SOMEONE'S SON, SOMEONE'S FRIEND, A BROTHER, MINE.
HE DID NOT ASK IF RIGHT OR WRONG IT DID NOT CROSS HIS MIND. HIS COUNTRY CALLED AND HE REPLIED AND SLIPPED INTO THE NIGHT.
AND NOW I THINK OF ALL THE FRIENDS AND FAMILY OF THESE MEN ETCHED UPON THIS BLACKENED STONE THEIR SORROW NEVER ENDS.
TAKE A MOMENT IF YOU WILL TO PONDER WHAT THEY GAVE, WHAT IT COSTS TO LIVE YOUR LIFE WITH SO MUCH FREEDOM EVERYDAY.
TO THOSE WHO GAVE THEIR LIVES, AND THOSE WHO RETURNED, THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH! Posted by: DAN CHESLEY Email: Relationship: He is my brother Monday, October 29, 2001
