I pray the Lord their souls to keep
Make the days as short as sleep
My kid, an Airman, the time is nigh
Spread their wings and let them fly
Save the world and protect our land
In the air and on the sand
Teach them skills and plant a seed
To live an oath, the Airmans Creed
In their blues, us parents grin
Aim high, our Airmen, Fly, Fight, Win
-Duane Townsend

RUB-A-DUB-DUB

Three belle-gals in a shower.
They shake, rattle, wiggle & cower.
Something some of us like to see.

I prefer to view three beau-guys
in a tub. Doing their stuff, in-salvo.
The stuff guys want & like to do.

‘Dropping the soap’ in the military
was common. I experienced that
proposition day-one of BMT. Cherry.

Rub-a-dub-dub three men in a tub,
what a site to see. “Hey, one of
them is me!”— Ray Laccetti
