A Para stood at the gates of heavan
He looked both weary and old
He timidly asked st peter
For admission to the fold
What right have you the great saint cried
To gain admission here
I have been with the third battalion said he
For many a weary year
The gates were then thrown open wide
St Peter tolled the bell
Come in my son you are welcome here
You have had your share of HELL
