Military Retirement Poems

1. It is the soldier

It is the soldier, not the reporter,
Who has given us freedom of the press.

It is the soldier, not the poet,
Who has given us freedom of speech.

It is the soldier, not the campus organizer,
Who has given us the freedom to demonstrate.

It is the soldier, not the lawyer,
Who has given us a right to a fair trial.

It is the soldier, like (NAME HERE),
who salutes the flag,
Who serves under the flag,

And whose coffin is draped by the flag.

Military Retirement

Recognition of members who are retiring from a career of long, faithful, and honorable service is one of the oldest traditions of military service. Each retiree should leave the service with a tangible expression of appreciation for his/her contribution to the military, and with the assurance that they will continue to be a member of the military family in retirement.

Military Retirement Gift Ideas

One very good gift idea that is appropriate for any Military retirement would be a Military shadow box. A Military shadow box contains every squadron patch, MAJCOM patch or squadron coin from each base that the retiree has been stationed at throughout their Military career. The shadow box, which is usually a wooden box with a velvet backing and a glass front, can be purchased at most Base Exchanges or Clothing Sales stores located on base. The coins and patches can be purchased or special ordered at the Clothing Sales store on base as well.
