Blood that never dried --
The wind-grieved ghost --
From the Argonne to Pearl Harbor --
Arizona, I remember you --
Ghastly remnants of its last gaunt garrison --
The rim of darkness --
The raggedy ass marines --
The canal --
Les braves gens --
We are living very fast --
I will lay me down for to bleed a while ... --
... Then I'll rise and fight with you again.
A personal memoir of the author while serving in the Pacific during World War II as a foot soldier in the Marines.
