Santa Meets a MarineSubmitted by Quest-News-Serv... on Mon, 12/28/2009 - 02:37.
Twas the night before Christmas, he lived all alone, As I looked all about, a strange sight I did see, With medals and badges, awards of all kind, I’d heard stories about them, I had to see more, He seemed so gentle, his face so serene, His head was clean-shaven, his weathered face tan. Soon around the Nation, the children would play, I couldn’t help wonder how many lay alone, He must have awoken, for I heard a rough voice, With that he rolled over, drifted off into sleep, I watched him for hours, so silent and still. Then I put on his T-shirt of scarlet and gold, I didn’t want to leave him so quiet in the night,
While a Lance Corporal serving as Battalion Counter Sniper at the Marine Barracks 8th & I, Washington, DC, under Commandant P.X. Kelly and Battalion Commander D.J. Myers [in 1986], James M. Schmidt wrote this poem to hang on the door of the Gym in the BEQ. When Colonel Myers came upon it, he read it and immediately had copies sent to each department at the Barracks and promptly dismissed the entire Battalion early for Christmas leave. The poem was placed that day in the Marine Corps Gazette, distributed worldwide and later submitted to Leatherneck Magazine. http://standeyo.com/NEWS/09_Faith/091225.Santa.meets.Marine.html
