Inscription.
[Armed Services Emblems]

I Have Done Things
that haunt me at night
so you can sleep in peace

I Have Been Away
from my family a long time
so that yours can be safe

I Have Sacrificed
a lot in my life
so that you may live free

I Have Done These Things
because I have sworn an oath
to my country

and I will live by this oath
Until The Day I Die
because I am & always will be a
U.S. Veteran

[Dedicated] May 2017
