   To Whom It Would Be of Interest,

   I wrote this song to pay tribute to All Veterans and

   would be honored if you choose to post it on your Patriotic

   Web Site. I thank you and God Bless!

   A Tribute To Veterans

   In Vietnam, Korea and World Wars Past
   Our Men Fought Bravely so Freedom Would Last
   Conditions Where Not Always Best They Could Be
   Fighting a Foe You Could Not Always See:

   From Mountain Highs to Valley Lows From Jungle Drops to Desert Patrols

   Our Sinewy Sons Were Sent Over Seas
   Far From Their Families And Far From Their Dreams
   They Never Wrote Letters Of Hardships Despair
   Only Of Love, Yearning That One Day Soon:

   They Would Come Home, They Would Resume And Carry On With The Rest of Their Lives

   The P.O.W.’S Stood Steadfast
   Against the Indignities And Cruelties Of War
   They Could Not Have Lasted as Long as They Did
   If They Had Relinquished Their Hope That Some Day:

   They Would Come Home, They Would Resume And Carry On the Rest Of Their Lives

   Medics, Nurses, and Chaplains Alike
   Did What They Needed To Bring Back Life
   They Served Our Forces From Day Into Night
   Not Questioning If They Would Survive:

   They Mended Bones And Bodies Too, They Soothed the Spirits of Dying Souls

   And for Those M.I.A’S, Who Were Left Behind
   We Echo This Message Across the Seas
   We Will search For as Long As It Takes
   You’re Not Forgotten And Will Always Be:

   In Our Hearts, In Our Prayers, In Our Minds For All Time

   A Moment of Silence, a Moment of Summons
   Is Their Deliverance of Body And Soul
   To a Sacred Place That We All Know
   Deep In the Shrines of Our Soul:

   In Our Hearts, In Our Prayers In Our Minds For All Time

   INTERLUDE: GOLD STAR MOTHERS GRIEVE: ENDLESSLY, ENDLESSLY, ENDLESSLY.......

   These Immortalized Soldiers Whose Bravery Abounds
   They’re Our Husbands, Fathers, and Sons
   They Enlisted For the Duty at Hand
   To Serve the Cause of Country and Land:

   They Had Honor, They Had Valor, They Found Glory That Change Them Forever

   Men Standing Tall and Proud They be
   A Country Behind Them in a Solemn Sea
   So Let the Flags of Freedom Fly
   Unfurled in Their Majesty High:

   In the Sun, In the Rain In the Winds Across This Land

   Years of Tears Has Brought Us Here
   Gathering Around to Hear This Sound
   So Let the Flags of Freedom Fly
   Unfurled in Their Majesty High:

   In the Sun, In the Rain, In the Winds Across This Land

   REPEAT:

   In the Sun, In the Rain, In the Winds For All Time

Dr. Ralph Oliva

So, how do you get to be a B2B Marcom Star? Well, Ralph developed the "DLP" brand program (Texas Instrument's first ingredient branding strategy) and worked on several landmark products (including TI's "Speak and Spell", and the TI-30 calculator). And so much more. Read on
