"Stars and Stripes"
Stars and Stripes, they flew
forever always in his heart.
He was loyal to his nation
and bravely did his part.
Always thinking of his brother
ever in his mind.
He stood for love of country
and most of all, mankind.
Now gazing down with his Master
through a light and heavenly cloud,
He’s still looking out for all of
us of whom he is so proud.
