In Flanders Fields

By: John McCrae, MD (1872-1918) Canadian Army

In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.

when i see the only flying example of this airplane doing low and overs on a regular basis it makes me proud to know they fought the good fight so we might have the good life.

much respect to the many men and women that fought so courageously for our freedom. (http://kilby.sac.on.ca/ActivitiesClubs/cadets/Piping/Music/Amazing%20Grace.mp3)
