The Call
Young men and women
hear the call to serve our nation
and join the military.

When enemies pose a threat,
soldiers, sailors, airmen, marines
answer the call
to fulfill their mission
of defending our freedom
without hesitation.

After retirement,
that call to serve continues,
so they volunteer
at a local soup kitchen...

until one gets shot
by a deranged homeless vet.
