I served in the U.S. Marines from 1963 ~ 1969...I was a Staff Sgt. I was in Vietnam three different times, last time there I was hit with shrapnel ending my career with the Marines, I recieved a Purple Heart. I'm a member and Past Commander of The American Leigion, member of The Veterans of Foreign Wars, a 32nd Degree Mason and member of The Kentucky Colonels. I also volunteered for The Northern Kentucky Honor Guard for a few years, they do the military funerals in our area.

the same arm that was wounded in
1968 by shrapnel.

"The Final Inspection"
The soldier stood and faced God,
Which must always come to pass,
He hoped his shoes were shining,
Just as brightly as his brass.
"Step forward now, you soldier,
How shall I deal with you?
Have you always turned the other cheek?
To My Church have you been true?"
The soldier squared his shoulders and
said, "No, Lord, I guess I ain't,
Because those of us who carry guns,
Can't always be a saint.
I've had to work most Sundays,
And at times my talk was tough,
And sometimes I've been violent,
Because the world is awfully rough.
But, I never took a penny
That wasn't mine to keep...
Though I worked a lot of overtime
When the bills got just too steep
And I never passed a cry for help,
Though at times I shook with fear,
And sometimes, God forgive me,
I've wept unmanly tears.,
I know I don't deserve a place
Among the people here,
They never wanted me around,
Except to calm their fears.
If you've a place for me here, Lord,
It needn't be so grand,
I never expected or had too much,
But if you don't, I'll understand."
There was a silence all around the throne,
Where the saints had often trod,
As the soldier waited quietly,
For the judgment of his God.
"Step forward now, you soldier,
You've borne your burdens well,
Walk peacefully on Heaven's streets,
You've done your time in Hell."
