Cpl. Bates said:
He walks with steady aim and silent pride,
A marksman’s eye belongs to PFC McKee.
Through smoke and dust, his arc is true and wide,
Each round a word in battlefield decree.
The underbarrel hums beneath his hand,
A song of skill and deadly artis-try.
No wasted step, no motion ever planned—
Instincts refined by war’s hard pedigree.
He fights with calm where chaos makes demand—
A sharper soul you won’t outshoot or see.
Congratulations on your Grenadier Sharpshooter Badge, PFC McKee!
