Remembering Our Fallen Troops...
in which all wars that Americans have fought and died.~~~~~
In Flanders Fields was written by LTC. John McCrae - who himself
became a Fallen Troop after serving four years in WWI.
In Flanders field the poppies blow~Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky~The larks, still bravely singing, fly~
Scarce heard amid the guns below.~~~~~
We are the Dead.Short days ago~We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,~
Loved and were loved, and now we lie~In Flanders fields.~~~~~
Take up our quarrel with the foe;~To you from failing hands we throw~~~~~
The torch;be yours to hold it high.~If ye break faith with us who die~
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow~In Flanders fields.~~~~~We Honor
Our Fallen Troops - and Remember.
