I wear no uniforms...
no Blues or Army Greens,
but I am in the Army...
in the ranks rarely seen.
I have no Rank upon my shoulders...
Salutes I do not give,
but the Military world...
is the place where I live.
I'm not in the Chain of Command...
orders I do not get,
but my Husband is the one who does...
this...
I can not forget.
I'm not the one who fires a weapon...
who puts my life on the line,
but my job is just as tough...
I'm the one left behind.
My husband is a Patriot...
a Brave and Pride Filled Man.
The call to serve his Country...
not all can understand.
Behind the lines...
I see the things...
NEEDED to keep this Country free.
My husband makes the sacrifice,
but so do our kids and me.
I love the man I married...
The Army is his life,
So I pledge to support my Hero...
and stand among the Silent Ranks...
known as...
The Army Wife!
