At the end of the year
The end of the year is typically a time for reflection and so I offer this poem.
It is a mod by my proof reader, Val Bramley, of a well known Anon poem - used by many from Fireman to Victor Crew Chief.
The Harrier stood at the Pearly Gates
So proud, erect and bold
But meekly asked St Peter
For admission to the Fold.
St Peter asked “What have you done
“That I should ring the bell?”
“I was a British Harrier
And served my country well”
The Gates swung quickly open
And there he saw inside
A hundred and more Harriers
With God standing by their side
God smiled widely at him
And clasped him to his breast
“Oh Welcome mighty Harrier
Come take your well-earned rest.”
