TRIBUTE TO BRAVE MEN WHO FOUGHT
       AT DA NANG IN VIET NAM
                 by Evelyn Heinz

We were three-hundred-thirty men
Against two-thousand...
Marching up the hill of Da Nang.
Over hills and through dense jungle
We and our buddies
Marched right along.

Though death was all around us
And the moans of the wounded
Filled our ears,
We marched on and on, battle worn,
But courageously, through a field
Of all our tears.

In battles such as this
People don't realize
What we go through
When we fight.

It is a test of personal courage
And perserverance...
That turns boys into men
Overnight.
Dear Jackie,
Last night I watched a DVD about the battle of DaNang, in Viet Nam
back in November l967.  I was moved to tears and this morning I still
had the men in that battle on my mind, so I wrote this poem.
