| The Lumineers – Charlie Boy Lyrics | 12 years ago |
| Wow, what an honor to have Wes' family give us an inside look at the true meaning of Charlie Boy. I loved this song from the first moment I heard it. It was so touching to me as my Uncle fought as a Marine in Nam as well, and he was one of the few from his platoon to make it home alive. I am so very sorry for your loss. My Uncle still often speaks of the tragedy he witnessed there and the effects it took on him as a young boy who needed his Mother's permission and signature to enlist. He was driven by the pride to serve his Country proudly, and it sounds like Charlie was from the same make as my Uncle. I am so sorry for your family's loss, you never forget the memories. Godspeed Charlie and thank you for your honor in serving our Country. | |
