187th Airborne RCT, Korean War 1952-1954
Devoted Husband and Father, Loving Grandfather,
~ Loyal Friend and Proud Veteran ~
What seperates them from the rest
These men with silver wings
Troopers from the sky above
In whom devotion springs
What spirit so unites them
In brotherhood they say
Their answer loud and clear
"Airborne All The Way!"
These are the men of danger
As in open door they stand
With static line above them
And ripcord in their hand
While earthbound they fall
A silent prayer they say
"Lord be with us forever,
Airborne All The Way."
Oneday they'll make their final
jump, St. Mike will take them out
The good Lord will be waiting
He know what they are about
And answering in cadence,
He'll hear the trooper's say
"We're glad to be aboard Sir,
Airborne All The Way!"
"Airborne All The Way!"
