| THE FACE OF A SOLDIER These words are dedicated by the author to the scenes at the National Korean War Memorial in Washington, DC "There on the wall are the faces of soldiers, men and women who fought in Korea, faces of soldiers stare into your eyes, so much to learn from these faces on a wall, for these are the soldiers of the forgotten war, their heroic efforts stopped a communist threat, and even though these soldiers you haven't met, cannot spring to life,full fields on their back a BAR in their hand, another soldier carries the field glasses in his hand, they were the ones sent so long back in 1950, by our Uncle Sam to a strange foreign land, faces of soldiers stare at me, freedom isn't free, unless you've fought for the cause of liberty, these men gave their all, these faces of soldiers on a gray stone wall." --Celine Rose Mariotti- (Daughter of a Korea War Veteran and member of the KWVA) |
