sherrylephotography:@goneahead poe-tober SherrylephotographyThe Forgotten war memorialDad fought in World War 2 He wanted to serve his country as many do.The military said yes you will become a pilot That was not true so he became quietHe was surprised That he survived The horrors of warSome of his soldier friends took their own lives And he criedHe decides that he may as well go to war again So he served in the Korean war I think it is sad that any war would be thought of as a forgotten war.My Dad was an honorable man And he did what he canHe went on to live well into his nineties He’d say I can’t understand why I am still aliveSo the good news is that after two wars he managed to live a full and happy life. -- source link
