vets come home to roost / the unknown soldier

Wait until the war is over...

And we're both a little older...

The unknown soldier...


Breakfast where the news is read
Television - children fed
Unborn living, living dead
Bullet strikes the helmet's head

And, it's all over for the unknown soldier
It's all over for the unknown soldier

Make a grave for the unknown soldier
Nestled in your hollow shoulder
The unknown soldier

Breakfast where the news is read
Television - children fed
Bullet strikes the helmet's head


With the complexities of telling a story with a single picture, injustice is served.

Please read the 2006 GAO report report on how injured veterans are being pursued by
collection agencies because of military debt. The report will make you cry.
(Click on the GAO-06-494 link and download the pdf file)
Homelessness, broken families, vets being classified as AWOL when in hospital,
it is unbelievable that this is the treatment our valiant protectors face. We, as the
beneficiaries of their sacrifice need to do more on their behalf.
