A Vet is a person
Foremost in heart
This is something that’s there
From their very start
A Vet is a Warrior
Neath a Banner of Brave
For God and for Country
And lives hoped to save
A Vet is for Freedom
Upon each Hostile land
Each serving uniquely
In ways oh so grand
A Vet is a Comrade
A Buddy for life
In good times and bad times
In comfort and strife
A Vet is a Handshake
A wink and a smile
For when their in Uniform
They snap-to in style
A Vet is for country
And its peoples inside
For they are the Fighters
Who fill the people with Pride
A Vet is the person
Who came Home neath a Flag
Not some loose fodder
Wrapped up in a rag
A Vet is all people
Who carries a Banner with Gold
Forever a Warrior
Be they young or quite old…
