Boys of the North,
And boys of the South,
United together,
fighting a common foe -
Charlie
Old Glory and the Southern Cross,
Draped together,
Men fighting as one.
Our blood is one
And the same -
Patriotic Red.
We fight and die together.
With the Rebel Yell,
We fight alongside -
Old Glory!
I like your 'North/South' term, which applied to both the American Civil War and Vietnam. Repetition of 'We fight' is effective. You answered the call to service in that theatre of war.
Brothers uniting instead of fighting. That's such a good thing; makes me want to sing. An inspiring poem.
All men fought for making our country stronger and in the end shook hands to keep the people free in peace and united under one flag.Proud to be an American and salute the flag! Thanks you to our men and woman who paid the price so bravely.
Kathy, Thank you sister for the kind comments! ! Love always! ! ! !

My brother, David helped me with updating the appropriate flags, the 34 star flag of the United States and the " Southern Cross" confederate flag. It had 13 stars, In Vietnam, we united together, to fight a common foe. We fought together and we died together. " God Bless America"
