Fighting soldiers from the sky
Fearless men who jump and die
Men who mean just what they say
The brave men of the Red Beret

Silver wings upon their chest
These are men, Singapore's best
One hundred men will test today
But only three win the Red Beret

Trained to live off nature's land
Trained in combat, hand-to-hand
Men who fight by night and day
Courage peak from the Red Berets

Silver wings upon their chest
These are men, Singapore's best
One hundred men will test today
But only three win the Red Beret

Back at home a young wife waits
Her Red Beret has met his fate
He has died for those oppressed
Leaving her his last request

"Put silver wings on my son's chest
Make him one of Singapore's best
He'll be a man they'll test one day
Have him win the Red Beret"

Why war? watched fahrenheit-911 recently and got a lot of insight, watch it if you can.
