But my finest hour comes
when I am torn into strips and used as bandages
for my wounded comrades on the battlefield,
When I fly at half-mast to honor my soldiers,
Or when I lie in the trembling arms
of a grieving mother
at the graveside of her fallen son.

I'd rather my own son see me die on my feet as a free man, than watch him go, broken, into slavery.

He was a Gunnery sergeant (E-7). They're usually a like a company logistics guru, but this one was in charge of a platoon for a little while. I'm not even sure if he went into my company, but as soon as I got over to the MP unit on camp Lejeune I started hearing about this freakin awesome Gunny.
