Harvey- Can't reach you via personal pages, so a quick question (excuse me, people)... I also wrote a song I names, "The Soldier," published in book, Celebration of Life, in 1971. So far it hasn't gone 'into tradition,' as has yours, but I'd like very much to see how they compare. Any chance you'd print one of your verses here? I would oblidge also, if you're interested. Buffy St Marie also has a soldier song, and I was trying to avoid HER title! Jean
