War- What Is It Good For?
Dennis Wright
Life is so precious
War is the enemy of life
Life should be forever
BUT IT IS NOT.
When your twenty
You think you have your WHOLE life
Not when your going to combat
Then you think your going to die.
To be taking it at one day at a time
Is all you can do
To be grateful just to wake up
Knowing that you made it through
Another day or night!
To see buddies leave after their tour
Is a good thing.
But to to see buddies leave
Because of casualty, is not.
Two of my buddies are now GONE
GONE is a “nice” way of saying
That they are now DEAD.
Another wounded and sent home.
I thought my time was coming
One particular night
Physically I lived
But I am broken mentally.
The horrors of war
I will never forget
From the burned-up cook
To the shot-up civilian.
The screams I will never forget
Maybe that’s why I like QUIET.
And I also like music
Because they bring me PEACE.
It’s a struggle for peace
As it is so temporary
As I always see the faces
Of my GONE buddys.
I will not own a firearm
As I have seen what they do
When they get used
It can’t be unused.
As the title and the song says
War what is it good for,
ABSOLUTELY NOTHING
I love my family and I know its been a STRAIN
But they bring me peace
To have PEACE is GODS gift
THANK YOU, GOD.
Sincerely
Dennis J Wright

Richard D Olson
Lisa Rictor-Diaz
Hi all, I'm looking for information regarding my uncle whom was adopted at the age of 2 (from Cleveland, Ohio - his birthname was Rictor). He was adopted by Mr. & Mrs. Maurice E. Olson - he served in the USAF flew 195 Combat Support Missions, I was told he left the Air Force as MSgt, he received the Air Medal with 4 oak leafs, and the Meritorious Service Metal. He had 7 children and 2 step kids, he died in 1979. I know he attended the University of Maryland, University of Delaware, Golden Gate University and Saint Leos. He had a Psychology and Sociology degree. He is buried in Alexandria Rapides Parish, LA. He found Alpha and Omega (which I'm told dealt with men and divorce, but no luck on that yet).
I'm really just looking for ANY info, any way to contact my cousins, and so on. Thanks for taking the time to read this. He was born in 1937 and died in 1979.
Thanks,
Lisa
