"the crack in the bell" New meaning for me has the crack in the bell. It now reminds me of the separated brothers and sisters known to us as MIAs. Separated from their country with us their only hope. We must do everything in our power to return them to their home. To the home they fought for. To the people that will not forget . . . Bring Them Home Bruce T. Janes May 30, 1997 |
If you are able, save for them a place inside of you and save one backward glance when you are leaving for the places they can no longer go. Be not ashamed to say you loved them, though you may or may not have always. Take what they have left and what they have taught you with their dying and keep it with your own. And in that time when men decide and feel safe to call the war insane, take one moment to embrace those gentle heroes you left behind. Major Michael Davis O'Donnell 1 January, 1970 Dak To, Vietnam |
