Special Forces Requiem
This is their last and final roll call,� Warriors in an elite fraternity.� The name is called and the answer:� "She is gone, she has departed us." All bow their heads and remember:� When she was youthful and courageous,� When she went where others feared to go, When she marched with the "Green Berets".� She is the legend of the Special Forces.� She is the soldier who would volunteer.� She is the warrior in each person's heart.� She is the heroine his nation does honor.� �Farewell my friend, my comrade-in-arms.� Farewell the lover and wife who was true.� Farewell the mother and grandmother too.� Farewell the legend, farewell the heroine.
