the six Triple 8
[Verse] They wore the badge but not the name Their courage burned a quiet flame In Europe’s cold and shadowed skies The Six Triple Eight Unseen in eyes [Chorus] Oh Unsung heroes Marching on Through storms of doubt They stayed strong Sorting letters Saving lives Unsung heroes of '45 [Verse 2] Stacks of mail like mountains tall They broke them down They answered the call Smart and brave They stood their ground In every word Hope was found [Prechorus] But history turned a blinded face Forgot their hearts Erased their place [Chorus] Oh Unsung heroes Marching on Through storms of doubt They stayed strong Sorting letters Saving lives Unsung heroes of '45 [Bridge] They crossed an ocean Left their home Fighting wars they’d never own No statues stand No parades were thrown But their story’s ours to hone
