Onward Wheelchair Soldiers
Roll onward wheelchair soldiers into the light of day
For the battle we fight is not one of war but for the strength and courage to say
We are best at what we do, at home, at work, at play
We meet each challenge the best we can, the all American way
Let all the wheelchair soldiers, assembled here today
Summon up that strength and courage as we go out to play
The National Veterans Wheelchair Games is but one way we can say
We are the wheelchair soldiers and we are here to stay
Though our weapons be the shot-put, javelin and the disk
That each and every event we choose may hold a certain risk
It is with strength and courage that we do battle on this field
And carry the banner of sportsmanship as our golden shield
Let all the wheelchair soldiers assembled here today
Show the world, that we are the best at home, at work, at play
Roll onward wheelchair soldiers into the light of day. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Dedicated to the Athletes attending the 25th National Veterans Wheelchair Games in Minneapolis, Minnesota - 2005.--------------------------------------------------------------------- Larry G. Binger U.S. Navy Disabled Veteran and Wheelchair Athlete 2005
