Rotors beat up over limbs...blowing trees asunder
Rat-a-tat of machine gun fire...careful eyes that wander
Black pajamas rushing in dark tunnels of a maze
Darkened faces...wide-eyed glow...staring through this haze
Chatter of a whispered fear...echo's underground
Choppers seek and locate these...their hiding places found
Infantry accepts the call and finds this hidden place
When choppers, soldiers and their God march toward a
face-to-face
The war of communistic steps...the fear of north aggression
Upon the lands of worn out folks...to stop this Red oppression
Freedom rang for all the ears cept those with mixed desires
Those who fought for another's land to stomp out hidden fires
Communist against foreign troops...Americans with force
Bikini fighters...tree top flyers...those who had a choice
They gave their best to honor us in hopes eternal challenge
For children's peace in war torn lands and hearts that
hid and cringed
To deadened sockets of young kids...their cries of pains
and d**h
We called their mission Godly and we put them to this test
For those who returned to us...for those missing in action
We sanctified this war for peace against this red infraction
Red aggression...beaten back and freedom rang to mend
Today the Vets of Viet Nam...would do it all again.
Dedicated to Bikini 25...and all those who fought for freedom
