I could hear the soldiers puking as we approached the beach
Men heaving.....
realizing the water was cold and deep

Some didn’t have a chance
Corpses floating out to sea
As I and another medic
Drug soldiers to safety

I saw men burning
Their bodies burnt to a crisp 
Young boys really 
Who never had a chance to live 

I still dream at night
About what I saw
And pray for the dead
The soldiers who died at Omaha

Never forget sacrifices made
Our forefathers the path they paved
Storming  the beach 
So they could reach 
Loss of limb and life that was paid 
Never forget sacrifices made
Many dying before getting to the shore
Water of red- blood and gore
Triage closing of the eyes
Bullets as they pass by
While folks back home silently prayed
Never forget sacrifices made
And for those that made it thru
They were the chosen few
Yet their  minds never left the war
Remembering death of their comrades evermore 
Greatest generation the world they saved 
Never forget sacrifices made
