by Alec Gagnon

Pilot

fighting in the air and sea

who feels the damage of the war and ship and body

who need food and water and friends

who fears the death of people around them losing their country

who loves their freedom, friends and family

who thinks about the worry of his or her family

who believes in their countries freedom

soldier

fighting on the ground doing whatever it takes

 

*Alec Gagnon, 9 years old, is the son of Matthew Gagnon, CEO of The Maine Heritage Policy Center.
