Remembering
 
 

As the shipmates assemble, The ceremony unfolds... They are here to pay tribute to men, On eternal patrol Having made that last dive, Remembering them as they were then.	We never forgot you... We always remember the good times As well as the bad. And this is the reason We have built this wall, A memorial stone That you never had.
The flags are dipped As the bell does toll Lost boats are called by name. With heads bowed low, Each man praying alone, Though silent Their thoughts are the same.	When at this memorial We gather to pay honor & tribute to you. We can look at- the wall And see each name In this resting place... Long overdue.
"It could have been me" Often times its been said We were saddened to lose you Good friend. But we all knew too well That war is hell and some lives Had to come to an end.	Robert H. Moore
