The Ode To The Us 24th Infantry Division Poem by Kinsley Lee

The history, of the twenty-fourth division in Korea
Is, for freedom, written by blood and hands in blistery
They infused the breath for country, lapsed into dyspnea,
They're all the brave warriors and left the glorious history

Osan, Dajeon, they gained time instead of their lives,
And on the battle fields only left the summer breeze.
The young soldiers fallen on earth to be floral leaves,
But, in Korea, the leaves brought up the freedom trees.

Collapsed the front line and one after another commitment,
But under handicap, they succeeded the stalling operation.
The time for other units, it's essential for refitment,
As a result, it's the base for victory for other operation.

Now, owing to the blood of heroic division,
Korea could defend the freedom, it's not only the victory
Of Korea but world. They planted the freedom as vision
And it'll be recalled eternally by free people as the victorious history.
