Bring Him Home
[media=https://youtu.be/fXnRf3TQcpk]
Christmas means many things to many people. Once upon a time in a land far away, I was a young 19 year old farm kid in uniform thousands of miles from home overseas, and I can remember looking up in to the Heavens on my first Christmas Eve away from home. The night sky was absolutely brilliant....more brilliant than anything I had ever seen, and I was struck by the fact that, in feeling a bit sorry for myself that night, standing under that magnificent Heaven, I'd been gifted.....knowing full well that not far away, men were not being given the opportunity to spend anything less than their full concentration on living......
And so, in the memory of every one of them.....as we near Christmas, I want to leave this heartfelt homage to all of those who would in their youth, remain where they fell. I've not forgotten you.
This one is for you gents.
