Author Note:
I live in New Zealand, a country whose military personnel are known more for peace-keeping and humanitarian commitments rather than armed force. I imagined I was American while writing this poem.
I personally do not know any serving military personnel. My father was in the Australian army during World War 2 and both grandfathers served in World War 1.
In Australia and New Zealand we have a proud tradition of honouring our ANZAC spirit (Australia New Zealand Army Corps), forged during World War 1 battles and continuing since then.
