Remember this Memorial Day; when you're eating your barbecue, smiling and laughing, that in another house somewhere, there's an empty chair where a hero should be sitting. They gave up their lives so that you can sit with your family. So take a moment to think about the heroes that that did not make it home and for those who are still serving around the world

My I Never Forget
The lord said two are going and only one is coming back
He never told me your name
He did not ask me if that is who I would chose
He did not tell me when one of us would go
He did not ask if I would give my life for you
I guess he decided your family could handle the loss better than mine ,or he needed a better soldier than me
What ever the reason he took you and left me .
For that I am forever in your debt for stepping up and saying Lord
Oh Precious Lord take me
Allow Doc the will power to survive and care for others that are wounded .
For that I Thank You and the families of every serviceman that gave his life because one of them took my place
Charles Doc Chapman
1968-69
Combat medic Viet Nam

I attended the Memorial day ceremony at my local Veterans Cemetery this morning.
