POETIC JUSTICE Published Dec. 12, 2007 By Airman 1st Class Kerri-Jo Hyde Kandahar, Afghanistan -- I was a member of the group that went through the combat convoy training course outlined in your July/August 2007 issue of Torch ("Combat Convoy," page 12). The people you featured are still in Afghanistan doing gun truck convoys. I'm a gunner with a transportation platoon there, and I recently wrote a poem about gun truck convoys (below). I thought you might be interested in seeing it. 'Gun Truck Convoy' Gun 6 says, "convoy rolling," and then the fun begins. Roll through the gate, lock and load, all gunners go red. Not much chatter on the comm, except within the truck. Mission weighing on our shoulders, trying to keep the spirit up. Who or what is out there, we really do not know. Ready to fight whatever approaches, because that's just how we roll. Gun 1 leads us out, Gun 6 bringing up the rear. Every victor in between, depends on us to keep them clear.
