Then at least let's give him homage at the ending of his days.
Perhaps just a simple headline in a paper that would say,
Our Country is in mourning, for a soldier died today.”

WELCOME HOME LCpl Hill!
A special welcome home to a Massachusetts Marine. Thankyou Alex for your service
"Some people live an entire lifetime and wonder if they have made a difference in the world. Marines don't have that problem." - Ronald Reagan
"PRAYER FOR A US MARINE "ALEX HILL"
Lord, shadow with Your loving care
The path of this Marine;
On land, on sea, by night, by day,
From him all dangers screen.
The leathernecks of God,
Brave men,
The soldiers of the sea,
Whenever perils threaten most
Marines will always be.
Be with them Lord, in all the lands
Where duty bids them go,
Keep strong their faith, keep high
their hearts,
Protect them from the foe!
Amen Warmest Regards Ken(Chiefskid)
