Merry Christmas to the troops!!!

[theoddz]

'Twas the night before Christmas at the base overseas,
and the sentry was lonely in snow to his knees.

The plane over Greenland just circling around,
the sweep of the radar not making a sound.

The cooks in Alaska, the baker in Guam,
preparing Christmas dinner for those far from home.

All over the world, airmen, soldiers, sailors and Marines en masse,
protecting our future, our present and past.

Some sit in a movie they've seen twice before,
thinking of loved ones and Christmas and more.

Because of these women, and men so far from home,
our Christmas is peaceful with no combat zones.

At dinner this Christmas, remember in prayer,
the reason we're free is because they are there.
