Why Are You Marching Son

John Wayne reads the poem “Why Are You Marching Son” in this tribute video to all the men and women who have served in the armed forces and especially those that have made the ultimate sacrifice. The poem was written by John Mitchum (Robert’s brother) and is one of the poems on John Wayne’s only album originally released in 1973 “America, Why I Love Her”.
