If a Hero’s feet had memories and these in detail told They’d speak of the blood stained sands of Utah, Omaha and Gold The fear when charging the enemy’s gun Not knowing if they would be the one To never again see family or nation This they did without hesitation They would tell of the painful day They carried wounded brothers out of harm’s way Then came the most painful of all To see their brothers in battle fall These old feet are now racked with pain Never to see their youth again They now depend on you for relief So Dr.

If a Hero’s feet had memories and these in detail told
They’d speak of the blood stained sands of Utah, Omaha and Gold

The fear when charging the enemy’s gun
Not knowing if they would be the one
To never again see family or nation
This they did without hesitation

They would tell of the painful day
They carried wounded brothers out of harm’s way
Then came the most painful of all
To see their brothers in battle fall

These old feet are now racked with pain
Never to see their youth again
They now depend on you for relief
So Dr. Ne’ give your best with heartfelt belief
That your care shows undying admiration
For America’s Greatest Generation
