The Mansions of The Lord

United States Military Academy Glee Club

To fallen soldiers let us sing

Where no rockets fly nor bullets wing

Our broken brothers let us bring

To the mansions of The Lord

No more bleeding, no more fight

No prayers pleading through the night

Just divine embrace, eternal light

In the mansions of The Lord

Where no mothers cry

And no children weep

We shall stand and guard through the angels sleep

While through the ages safely keep

The mansions of The Lord

Memorial Day Letter to America’s Youth

By Lt. Gen. Hal Moore on May 26, 2011

Greatest stated accomplishment: Someone once asked him, "General, what do you consider your most important accomplishment?" Now, of course, you are asking this question of someone nearly 95 years old, with somewhat of a resume.

"What is your most important accomplishment?" He replied, "It hasn’t happened yet. My most important accomplishment will be when I cross that line at St. Peter’s gate and meet my God and my [wife] Julie."
