Lest We Forget - Volume 8 www.nfld.net/rclnfprovcom 87 "THE KOREAN WAR VETERANS MEMORIAL" On this magnificent ash woods site, Our memorial stands to Lincoln's right. Here on our nations capital mall, We honor Korean Veterans who answered the call. As we gather here, tears will shed, For the blood of our buddies, our honored dead. We ask God in heaven to give them rest, America knows they gave their best. President Truman was right, when he sent us to fight, The United States would stop Communist might. Battles raged from south to west, north to east, In the end, Communists gained the least. On the hills and mountains, valleys and coast, The U.S.A. and South Korea gained the most. We stopped Communism, kept South Korea free, Thanks to Korean Veterans like you and me. Before we leave our memorial here today, let us pray aloud, We are all Korean Vets, we are very, very proud. Our mission was accomplished, to build our memorial was a must, Freedom was victorious because our cause was so just.
