about

"Warrior will Survive" Is a song Larrabee wrote while at a Wounded Warrior Weekend in Slave Lake Alberta in the summer of 2014. Robert met a wounded warrior her name is Jo Gunny Gilliland, or Gunny for short. After hearing her story about wounded warriors and what they face when they return home. Larrabee new he had to write about what he heard, the tune is an uplifting song about survival. With a marching snare, bagpipes, and a trumpet playing the last stand it's a tune that's sure to touch you, especially if you've served in the forces.

Such a site to see- theres a Poets Hill

This wounded warrior will survive.
