Excellent song, really well written.

Enjoyed!

Hello Vic,
I am not a vet, but still I can say I really enjoyed listening to your song and vocals.
The lyrics are very good. What a story! Impressing.

Hi BlueAttitude.
Thanks for the comment. The guitars are BIAB, although some parts reworked.

Great story, tribute, arrangement and passionate vocal performance...
One of the better story tunes posted here.
Well done and we enjoyed it.
J&B
PS We had a similar experience with a series of letters from an ancestor on the Mexican border in 1916....drawings and letters that ended with THE telegraph.

Really enjoyed it nicely done in all aspects.
Topical for me as I just read some letters a cousin sent me written by a great uncle couple of months before he was killed in New Guinea Christmas day 1942.

Hi Peter.
Thanks for the appreciation and understanding.
Makes you wonder how many letters like that are still around.
Sad that some get lost or just wither away in a few years.

Thanks Greg.
Yes, one of those songs where the band has to control itself. Even Brent.:-)

Vic,
Nice and sad story behind this tune and great performance! Solid work or recording and vocals! Thank you for sharing
Misha.
P.S. a few month ago I was able to get a copy of document about my great grandfather who died fighting in 1942. A scanned hand written note by his commander. Archives were sealed for 75+ years and only recently opened. I knew he died from wounds, but I never knew he was honored with medal of bravery.

Misha.
There's something about old letters that bring you closer to that person even when you never met.
Thanks for listening and I'm glad you enjoyed my story.
