| John Flynn's "Dover" |
 |
"Dover" was written by John Flynn as a response to
the US policy of not letting the caskets of fallen
American soldiers be photographed as they returned
home. He felt it was wrong that the cost of the
war was being hidden and that the sacrifices of
these brave men and women were not being
acknowledged. It was written around the time of
the 1,000th US Military death in the Iraq war.
This song is a tribute to those who make the
ultimate sacrifice in their duty to our country.
Performance at North American Folk Alliance
Feb 2006 Austin, TX
