The Niemba Ambush. 8 Nov 1960. Gone, Never Forgotten

[2FARA @2farassociation]

Jadotville 13th - 17th Sept 1961

‘A’ Company at Mass under the Congolese Sky,
Private Bill Ready on sentry, did fire and let cry,
Katangans and Belgians, Rhodesians, and French,
Hell bent on destruction, lives ready to quench.

The world may change from year to year
And friends from day to day,
But never will the peacekeeper who served,
From memory pass away.

[2FARA @2farassociation]

You left so many memories,
Your joyous nature still a guide.
And although we cannot see you,
In our hearts you still reside.

[2FARA @2farassociation]

Today recalls the memory,
Of Three soldiers gone to rest,
And those who think of them today,
Are those who knew them best.

[2FARA @2farassociation]

Sunshine passes, shadows fall,
Respect and honour outlasts all.

[2FARA @2farassociation]

This day will be a celebration
of the short time you were here.
You will always be remembered
with great love and many tears.
