RIP Drummer Lee Rigby

    Just got this on Facebook and WOW!

     

     

    Just out for a walk after an early stack
    Not looking for trouble, not watching my back
    Mothers with prams holding hands with their kids
    Not paying attention to the car as it skids
    Caught completely off guard not expecting what comes
    One man with a knife another with guns
    No chance of defence no chance to fight back
    Looking for help as the cowards attack
    An angel arrives as the light turns to grey 
    A woman attempts to steer attackers away
    My last thought of 'Thank You' never strays from my brain
    As my body shuts down and I feel no more pain. 

    I look to my left and I look to my right
    Thousands of squaddies are all that's in sight
    Uniforms are crisp and their faces are clean
    No sign of anger or hate to be seen
    As if by command they salute all as one
    The RSM smiles, says 'Welcome home son
