Buahrangers Revetment: Poety and Stories by Vietnam Veteran, Anthony W. Pahl and friends

Were we old enough to shave?
We really must have been!
We had a nation to save.

Were we old enough to vote?
We really should have been!
We wore a jungle for a coat.

Were we old enough to cry?
We really could have been!
We were old enough to die.

Were we old enough to live?
We really might have been!
If our lives we didn’t give.

Are we to be remembered?
We really ought to be!

We
really
ought
to
be…
