God Bless The Men From The

14th Armored Cav

 Suivez Moi

By Richard Garcia

501st Armored Medical Company

God bless the men of the old 14th Armored Cav

They were the guards and all that we had

They were the stepping stones to total annihilation

There were there with total concentration

Men from boys, boys into men

If  they had to do it over they'd do it again

Border Legions the name they are called

We were faithful to our country, family and all.

First we were many, now we are few

We guarded the gates to hell for me and for you

When the great man  said, "Tear down that wall,"

The commies heard him loud and tore it down, all

Tony, he loved us we were his friends

He loved us all for the money we brang

From the top of the hill and to the Hole n' The Wall,

U-boat, the Bahnhof and Mueller's we gave it our all.

The bottom of the pit we knew as the camp

The home of many a  tramps. 

If you isn't Cav then you isn't shit

This motto reflect the  heart of the few

The next verse is by Jim Grooms 11-14-08

We ran the dispensary both by day and by night
your children were born on our Frankfurt runs
we were always on call to tend your need;s
   We were the proud  members of the 501st AMC

The next verse is by Jim Decker C Co. 1-14th ACR

We were young and brave and we stood in the Gap

Like Sparta's 300 we were to fill the breach

To fight and hold

Till the last round was fired by the very last soul

If the Russian's were to cause a great flap

We would turn it to hollowed ground, That Fulda Gap
