A Hero's Welcome
Time to come home, dear brother
Your tour of duty through
Youve given as much as anyone Could be expected to do
Just a few steps further
The smoke will start to clear
Others here will guide you
You have no need of fear
You have not failed your brothers
You clearly gave it your all
And through your selfless actions
Others will hear the call
So take your place of honor
Among those who have gone...
