A log of the magnificent journey across the vast sea of my imagination.

Esprit de Corps
Esprit de corps is forged before
orientation is complete
by sergeant's drills without the frills,
where bravery and challenge meet.

Esprit de corps so far from shore,
engaging with the ocean's moods
with only brief bits of relief
during R & R interludes.

Esprit de corps in peace and war
for everything we hold dear.
The bond we share still lingers there
beyond military career.
