The Ultimate Sacrifice
My name is Jesse MacDonald, and I am a senior in Gridley High School, in Gridley, Illinois. As part of the Gridley High School posting project, I would like to take this time to show my pride for the fighting men of this country, past and present. You may not have agreed with this war. You may have hated the idea that the country became involved in it at all. But when your country called, you put aside your personal feelings and answered the call, completely selflessly, and gave your life for her. You sacrificed your life for me, sir, and the rest of my family, friends, and my nation. Your family can rest assured, sir, that you may be gone, but you will never, never be forgotten.

"THINK OF ME"
You know you cannot bring me back,
You know that I am gone,
I walk the streets of Heaven now,
It's my eternal home,
But think of me now and then,
Just as you do today,
Remember that I died for you,
So America could stay,
A land where men are equal,
A land where men are free,
A land I lived and died for,
When you think of Freedom,
"THINK OF ME".

"I TRIED"
"I TRIED" my best to save you,
Both you and God know "I TRIED",
"I TRIED" to stop the hand of death,
As I knelt there by your side,
"I TRIED" everything that I could do,
During the fire-fight in Nam that day,
But no matter how hard "I TRIED",
There was nothing I could do or say,
I stared deep into your eyes,
I held you as you died,
And though no words were spoken,
I believe you know "I TRIED".
