We are lifting off and flying,
Flying away from a jungle battle.
Major Hai's foot is shattered,
By a fifty-one caliber bullet.

The Crew Chief is hit and hanging,
Held in the aircraft by his tetter.
He's unconcious and needs help.
I climb to his side of the aircraft.

I drag him back into the helicopter.
He's hit just above his chicken plate,
A clean wound that needs patching.
I apply my bandage to his wound.

I turn him over and find the exit wound.
It is big and it is still bubbling.
I'll quick patch and stop the bleeding.
The bubbles stop before I am finished.

Joe, the CC didn't make it in the poem. Semper Fi, and READY-APP.

Cc end

Joe I had written a bit more twice, but it wouldn't post each time. Then it did when I left a bit out. Semper Fi, and READY-APP.
