Welcome, to
our state party web site! We are affiliated with the New Frontier
Coalition!
PLEASE click on the website below and see
this little video and song. If it doesn't work, go on the internet and
enter www.armedforcestribute.com in the search and it will come up. This is a flash
presentation with music from Ricky Skaggs with an overlay of a little girl
talking to her Dad who is a soldier.
It takes a few minutes to load but
it is well worth the wait.

IF HE CAN SERVE,
HE IS OLD ENOUGH TO BE SERVED!
(A BEER) "Soldiers Like Him"

Although his hair was graying and his legs weren't strong, His heart was
powerfully full of Patriotic song. He had pride for his Country, the same one
for which he'd fought, Laying down his life, so Freedom could be sought. When
others began to stare, it changed his mind none, For he had earned the right; he
had carried the soldier's gun. With his shakey right hand, he applied it to his
chest, Stood as straight as he was able, his pride for Nation was above the
rest. He had crawled through the mud, on his belly so cold, To protect Old
Glory, while she flew so bold. Each star and each stripe, waved forever in his
mind, And his wheelchair carried the results, of a long ago land mine. But he
mustered the strength, from a place the others would never understand, For he
still traveled with the nightmares, of the Iwo Jima sands. While the others
remained seated, it was he that was in awe, For he knew if it wasn't for
Soldier's like him, this Nation would surely fall.
