Poetry of the Week

“Peregrin Falcon”

A new flight, a screech of delight, a river food, beware the mother’s screech, the lives wires cross, a dive but no. “Next Time” the screech yells.

-Resident Bird Watcher

THEAMERICANFIGHTINGMAN

His average age is 19.

He is a short-haired, tight-muscled kid who, under normal circumstances, is considered by society as a half man, hal oy - not yet dry behind the ears, not old enough to buy beer but old enough to die for his country.

He never really cared much for work, and he would rather wax his own car than wash his father’s, but he has never collected unemployment either.

He’s a recent high school graduate; he was probably an average student, pursued some form of sports activities, drives a 10 year-old jalopy and has a steady girlfriend who either broke up with him when he le or swears to be waiting when he returns from half a world away.

He listens to rock 'n' roll, hip-hop, rap, jazz, or swing and weapons re.

He is 10 or 15 pounds lighter now than when he was home. He is working or ghting from before dawn to well a er dusk. He has trouble spelling, thus letter writing is a pain for him, but he can eld-strip a ri e in 30 seconds and reassemble it in less time, in the dark.

He can recite to you the nomenclature of a machine gun or grenade launcher and use either one e ectively if he must.

He digs foxholes and latrines and can apply rst aid like a professional.

He can march until he is told to stop or stop until he is told to march.

He obeys orders instantly without hesitation, but he is not without spirit or individual dignity.

He is self-su cient. He has two sets of fatigues; he washes one and wears the other. He keeps his canteens full and his feet dry.

He sometimes forgets to brush his teeth but never to clean his ri e.

He can cook his own meals, mend his own clothes and x his own hurts. If you’re thirsty, he’ll share his water with you; if you are hungry, his food.

He’ll even split his ammunition with you in the midst of battle, when you run low. He has learned to use his hand like weapons and weapons like they were his hands. He can save your life - or take it - because that is his job.

He will o en do twice the work of a civilian, draw half the pay and still nd ironic humor in it all. He has seen more su ering and death than he should have in his short lifetime.

He has wept in public and in private for friends who have fallen in combat, and is unashamed. He feels every note of the National Anthem vibrate through his body while at rigid attention, while tempering the burning desire to “square away” those around him who haven’t bothered to stand, remove their hats, or even stop talking. In an odd twist, day in and day out, far from home, he defends their right to be disrespectful. Just as did his father, grandfather, and great-grandfather, he is paying the price for our freedom. Beardless or not, he is not a boy.

He is the American ghting man who has kept this country free for more than 200 years.

He has asked nothing in return except our friendship and understanding. Remember him always, for he has earned our respect and admiration with his blood.

SACRIFICE IS MEANINGLESS WITHOUT REMEMBRANCE.

We ask that we as American Citizens be aware of, and take a moment this upcoming Monday to pause a moment, just a few moments of personal silence, to pay tribute to those Americans who died defending our country throughout the world since 1775. They came from all walks of life and regions, but they all had one thing in common, love and loyalty to country. Whether done individually or collectively, it is the thought that counts.

Originally known as “Decoration Day,” local springtime tributes to the Civil War dead commemorated by placing Mississippi, who in April 29, 1866 honored the Confederate dead from the battle of Shiloh; or Waterloo, New York

After World War I, the day of remembrance was extended to honor those who have died in all American wars. In 1971, by act of Congress, Memorial Day was declared a national holiday, and placed on the last Monday in May. In 2000, “The National Moment of Remembrance Act” was signed into law, encouraging the people of the United States to give something back to their country, including promoting Memorial Day as the sacred and noble event that day is intended to be. Along with the Act, a Presidential Proclamation designated 3 p.m local time on Memorial Day for a minute of silence to remember and honor those who have died in service to the Nation.

The American Legion Post 54 in honor of Memorial Day will be decorating the town of Gunnison with US Flags.

Please join us for a Memorial Day Ceremony at 10 a.m. at the Gunnison Cemetery.
