Looking for a poem...

[vicariousrider]

A few years back I read a poem that was about those who run and hide from the colors ceremony. I just got to thinking about the poem and I was wondering if anyone here might know which one I'm talking about - I've tried searching and nothing's been showing up. Thanks!

Remember that, cannot find it. Very disgusting to see it happen, often did I see sailors cower. Here is an article on the subject, apparently AF has same problem.

Interesting read, though I'm not too terribly shocked. It was on an Air Force Reserve base that I read the poem - before I joined the Navy, when I was an aspiring cadet in the CAP.
