Now I Have Shed My

Sometimes It Takes More Courage To Get Up And Run Than To Stay. You Either Just Do It Or You Don't. I Got So Scared The First Day In Combat I Just Decided To Go Along With It.

Now I Have Shed My First Blood. I Feel No Qualms, No Pride, No Remorse. There Is Only A Weary Indifference That Will Follow Me Throughout The War.

I'll Tell You What Bravery Really Is. Bravery Is Just Determination To Do A Job That You Know Has To Be Done.

I Was Scared Before Every Battle. That Old Instinct Of Self-preservation Is A Pretty Basic Thing, But While The Action Was Going On Some Part Of My Mind Shut Off And My Training And Discipline Took Over. I Did What I Had To Do.

And Freedom Is What America Means To The World.
