“It is from numberless diverse acts of courage and belief that human history is shaped. Each time a man stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope, and crossing each other from a million different centers of energy and daring, those ripples build a current that can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance.” – Robert F. Kennedy
Stand up straight!
Don't make a sound.
Stay rigid. Stay aware!
And for America's sake
Don't shed one tear.
Get down!
Crawl on your elbows!
Stay mobile. Stay aware!
And for America's sake
Don't give one frown.
Watch your step!
Quick! Look behind you!
Stay loaded. Stay aware!
And for America's sake
Make that final shot count!
Be brave!
Ignore the pain.
March on. Stay aware!
And for America's sake
Don't quit despite the bloodstains.
Be respectful!
Mourn, or those you have lost.
Stay quiet. Stay aware.
And for America's sake
Speak well of the dead.
Come home!
Spend due time with your family.
Express your love. Stay aware!
And for America's sake
Stay healthy and happy.
On Memorial Day
Have a moment of silence and show support.
Take time to remember. Stay thoughtful!
And for America's sake
Take one for the troops.
Remember those who have been lost and those who cannot be with their families. Take one for the troops and celebrate all they've
achieved for us. Thank you to all those who have served and died for our country.
"The soldier above all others prays for peace, for it is the soldier who must suffer and bear the deepest wounds and scars of war.” – Douglas
