Poems im memory off....... by M.E Tierney

Once upon a time, when I was in trouble for fighting my own battles after
being stamped on for so many years, I met a man who changed my persepective
on everything.
He was a Holocaust survivor who taught me many aspects of human nature that
had intrigued me for years and he did so with great humour and generous
spirit. He taught me to see people through the relevance of their life
experience and I could do it without having to sacrifice mercy. You don't
have to forgive to understand but understanding can help you heal and move
forward.
If someone who survived Auschwitz can do that then I had a fantastic chance
of doing the same.
Another thing he told me about was the three different types of Allied
soldier he came across after liberation. "The Russians said we were free and
left us to starve again. The British said we were free and helped us stand
tall again. The Americans said we were free and helped us laugh again. The
British men I hold dear in my heart but the Americans were so alive and
vigourous they reminded us that we were the same. That can be a greater gift
than food."

Blood on the risers

"Blood on the Risers" is an old American paratrooper song from World War II. The song was sung by both the United States 82nd Airborne Division and the United States 101st Airborne Division. This song has been featured on the television mineseries Band of Brothers and is on the video game Brothers in Arms. This song was sung to the tune of "The Battle Hymn of the Republic". This song tells of the final jump of a paratrooper and how his parachute does not work. This results in him falling to his death.
