song challenge--
it was in the summer of 44 the nation and the world were at war the ammo loaders said we will work no more since the explosion at the port.
they raced to load the bombs on board two ships being loaded there on the pier tons of munitions waiting on shore to be shipped out of the port
It seems there should bve a song about this.. So here is a start...
song writing is not my forte' but i jsut want to plant the seed... see what y'all can add (or subtract!)
