e got a letter from Josh today, if you could call it that, written 3/9/03. They are hearing about the anti-war protests and he was upset. That' s all the letter talked about. He enclosed a poem he and his buddies wrote. He wants us to get it out, let people see
how they feel. Any ideas?

o one standing in your crowd. We are your fathers, brothers, and sons, wearing the boots and carrying guns.
We are the ones that leave all we own, to make sure your future is carved in stone.
We are the ones who fight and die,We might not be able to save the world,
Well, at least we try.
W
e walked the paths to where we are at and we want no choice other tha n that.
so when you rally your group to complain,
take a look in the back of your brain.
In order for that flag you love to fly
wars must be fought and young men must die.
W
e came here to fight for the ones we hold dear. If that's not respected, we would rather stay here.
So please stop yelling, put down your signs, and pray for those behind enemy lines.
When the conflict is over and all is well, be thankful that we chose to go through hell.
Corporal Joshua Miles and all the boys from
3rd. Batallion 2nd. Marines, Kuwait
Come home safe, please!!!
