"Not for fame or reward
Not for place or for rank
Not lured by ambition
Or goaded by necessity
But in simple obedience to duty
As they understood it
These men suffered all
Sacrificed all
Dared all And died."
| GOD BLESS AMERICA
| They were born Americans;
they lived as Americans;
they died as Americans;
These men, our graduates,
performed the duties incumbent
upon them in that character
to the end of their careers,
when they lost their lives
in the Vietnam conflict. | | |
