Analysis of Soldier Boy
Dennis R Wolke 1968 (Michigan)
War plays mean tricks on you. You follow orders to the T. Your friends become your family and you would do anything for you. Knives and guns and bullets are like an extension of your hands. Cars and vehicles get you to place and places. So march to your personal war. Where you are a soldier boy.
