  25. Standing Guard…

    Halfway down the road to hell,

    And never see you when deliberately you put things in my way

    Well, here’s a poke at you
    You’re gonna choke on it too
    You’re gonna lose that smile
    Beacuse all the while

    I can see for miles and miles
    I can see for miles and miles
    I can see for miles and miles and miles and miles and miles

In view of a recent tendency to identify characters in fiction with real people, it seems proper to state that there are no real people in this volume: both the characters and their names are ficticious. The names or designations of any military units are ficticious. There are no living people nor existing military units presented in this book. -Ernest Hemingway

Near a good old-time canteen.
