I am a small and precious child,
My dad's been sent to fight...
The only place I'll see his face,
Is in my dreams at night.

He will be gone too many days
For my young mind to keep track.
I may be sad, but I am proud.
My daddy's got your back.

I am a caring mother.
My son may go to war...
My mind is filled with worries
That I have never known before

Everyday I try to keep
My thoughts from turning black.
I may be scared, but I am proud.
My son has got your back.

I am a strong and loving wife,
With a husband soon to go.
There are times I'm terrified
In a way most never know.

I bite my lip, and force a smile
As I watch my husband pack...
My heart may break, but I am proud.
My husband's got your back...

I am a soldier, Serving Proudly,
Standing tall.
I fight for freedom, Yours and mine
by answering this call.

I do my job while knowing,
The thanks it sometimes lacks.
Say a prayer that I'll come home.
It's me who's got your back.


I would urge all of you as good, God fearing, patriotic, AMERICAN citizens
to stand by all of the people that are already over there preparing to give
their lives for us and our way of life, as well as
those who will join them soon. Let us not have another Vietnam and all the
callous hatred that our people had to come home to face. Please mail this
to everyone you know regardless of how you or they feel about Iraq. I would
love to have every American citizen stop and think about it and I know of
no other way faster than this. SUPPORT OUR TROOPS, THEY DESERVE ALL THE
SUPPORT WE CAN GIVE THEM!! PRAY FOR THEIR SAFETY!!


"Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we will pay
any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose
any foe, in order to assure the survival and the success of Liberty."
-- John F. Kennedy, Inaugural Address. Friday, January 20, 1961
