He was able to finally pipe ashore the spirits fo those who fell in the water....and, he is a lengend that will be told for centuries. The piper that strode into the fires of hell.

The Longest Day is my favorite movie of all time. I have a color edition VHS set and listening to Piper Millin play was damn awe inspiring. Every time I hear the tune that he played during D-Day I tear up.

The Mad Piper's Complaint
Were I a warrior
I'd pipe by your side
wade the shores of Normandy
to a soldier's death
Were I a poet
I'd write songs
of highland lads
piping savage beauty
and love
an old man I am
I hung my pipe on the wall
my fingers fumble
fading faces
of friends forgotten
on foreign lands
endlessly
a tingle down my spine
a tear
these I can
