19 Brothers came home
By Sgt Allen Brown USMC Veteran



Today I saw a Video
I had tears in my eyes
Not tears of sadness
But tears of joy
For today 19 Brothers came home



I could not always call them Brothers
It took me three hard months to earn that right
I have thousands of Brothers and Sisters everywhere
But today 19 Brothers came home



I don't know all of their names
Will never meet most of them
Some are gone now
They date back to 1776
But today 19 Brothers came home



So do not shed a tear because they are gone
Sing out with joy for their return
Let the world know that they are back
For they have been gone along time
But today 19 Brothers came home

Had to post again after reading it I found out I messed up on a date Forgive me

Sing out with joy for their return
Let the world know that they are back
For they have been gone along time

new verse


Many more Brothers and Sisters are lost
But the Marine Corps will not rest
Till all are found
For we leave none behind
But today 19 Brothers came home

I HATE it when ya'll do that to me. What did it was that little old man singing the Hymn while they were loading the bodies on the plane.
