Green and Gold

--Hallock, MN
The green and gold
Represents a peacekeeping force
That's highly trained and bold.
With over 200 years of history
Their success is no
Mystery.
A lot of their leadership comes
From West Point cadets.
Can they do the job?
You bet!
They’ve had "5 stars"
Like Dwight.
With him in charge,
You could sleep safely at night.
Army leadership is tried, tested,
Proven and true.
Some become elected officials
When their hitch is through.
They look at the big picture
And they can handle stress.
These "green suiters"
Have cleaned up
Many a mess.
