Annotation
Soldier's First Night (Lawrence, Ron) Country, soldier's perspective, patriotic He has returned home from war all lonely. Rows of crosses tell the story of those who won't return. In Vietnam our soldiers fight and die, through the jungle and rain. We must keep old glory waving free. Reference to WW2
