                                                 I never dreamed it would be me
                                                My name for all eternity
                                                Recorded here at this hallowed place
                                                Alas, my name, no more my face

                                                "In the line of duty" I hear them say
                                                My family now the price will pay
                                                My folded flag stained with their tears
                                                We only had those few short years

                                                The badge no longer on my chest
                                                I sleep now in eternal rest
                                                My sword I pass to those behind
                                                And pray they keep this thought in mind

                                                I never dreamed it would be me
                                                And with heavy heart and bended knee
                                                I ask for all here from the past
                                                Dear God, let my name be the last
