Watched Hamburger Hill again this evening, and I thought the poem at the end was worth sharing/reminding...

 

SAVE THEM A PLACE

by Major Michael David O'Donnell

 

If you are able,

save them a place

inside of you

and save one backward glance

when you are leaving

 

Be not ashamed to say

you loved them

though you may

or may not have always

 

Take what they have left

and what they have taught you

with their dying

and keep it with your own.

 

And in that time

when men decide and feel safe

To call the war insane

take one moment to embrace

those gentle heroes

you left behind.

 

Major Michael David O'Donnell

Written 1 January 1970

MIA 24 March 1970

Dak To, Vietnam
