The Ode To Heroes Of The Us 2th Infantry Division

- To write a poem to praise the US 2th Infantry Division's Victory at Changnyung Battle

In late summer days, Nag-dong River was flowing
As usual. And thousand Lis the blue river's winding
The mountains and fields. The enemies' full-scale, two weeks,
Offensive, and the heroes defended the rivers and peaks

The enemy's launched series of attack to surround
The Dae-gu and their desperate action to defend them all-round
Operation. The bluish river had turned to be red,
And the invaders were fallen their dream on the riverside and bled.

The enemy couldn't break through and ran about in confusion,
Occupation the Busan, the dream turned out the illusion.
The Long experienced enemy soldiers were vanished
And lack of the arms, ammunition, and supply so they famished.

This successful operation was based on the counter-attack
And by Inchon operation, the enemies were pierced their back.
Changnyung-Bagjin was the name as a triumphant victory
And eternally we'd talk about the heroes and the story.
(22nd, Aug.,2023, Kinsley Lee)
