Pro Patria

Pro Patria.
In far off lands, out of sight,
men still fight for what is right,
give their lives to sought things out,
lose their limbs, writhe, shout.
Called up men were forced to fight,
to bite the bullet not take flight,
glad to see that call ups gone,
but spiteful wars still drag on.
Those called up lads are old, some gone,
some nerves still shattered by shell, bomb,
the fist of government we did our best,
still no medal clasps our chest.
Britain’s small wars are ignored,
as long as government is assured,
men will face the gun, die!
no one hears their widows cry.
For many years we have asked,
some small medal you give at last,
so as our children and theirs too,
know their kin fought good, true....jobee
