They Earned the Wall (Memorial Day Tribute)

Of these fallen men,
all did cry and all did die
some did lead and some did bleed
all stood tall and gave their all
some did stay, some came our way
all stayed to fight, all through the night
some knelt to pray, some put in graves
Of these fallen men,
We bow in awe.
They earned the Wall

So well said and so true also.  It is an unpayable debt that we owe them.
