Caroline Purr’s Newly Released ‘Better Days’ Single Rates with America’s Greats
New York City — Caroline Purr long ago earned the respect and admiration of America’s Greats with her Troop Song: ‘I WON’T BE HOME FOR CHRISTMAS’ (LIVE) donated to the VETUNES ® AIRBORNE ROCKATORIUM and performed live on several occasions for our Veterans and their families.
What defines our character as Veterans is the bond formed through our military service and that bond follows us into civilian life. It is because of this special connection that we are sensitive to the reality that other veterans may not be as fortunate as we may find ourselves.
This special connection is found in full measure within Caroline Purr, her music with America’s Greats. Purr understands that combat does not end when one leaves the battlefield. From Vietnam to the Iraq, Agent Orange to Depleted Uranium Munitions, our veterans and their families are facing some of the greatest battles of their lives.

“I just came home from major shoulder surgery with so many stitches I look like a Spaulding Baseball. Turned on my computer and there just when I needed it most was ‘Better Days’ by Caroline! Know this…God sent me an angel and as far as I am concerned there is none more deserving of the coveted Honorary Airborne title than Caroline!” Sgt Abn Kerry Lynch 82nd Airborne/2nd ID Shot Over…Shot Out.
“Caroline Purr: Heroic, Stoic…AIRBORNE!” -Sgt Airborne 82nd Airborne/2nd ID 1982-86 Grenada/Korea
“These are Better Days my friends, as long as we are still here. It is hard to pick ourselves up sometimes when Life’s ups and downs twist us in unexpected directions.
I wrote this song at a time in my life, where things were not too easy (they usually are not, but I am Thankful nonetheless).
Just when I really wanted to feel sorry for myself; I sat at the piano playing the few chords I know, while thinking of worse times in my life, like watching my beloved Brother in law Dennis Bosco die too young, of people I Love who struggle financially or with loneliness. I thought of our soldiers who sacrifice their lives for us, and leave their Loved ones crying at graves, and thought… What am I complaining about?
I am Thankful to be here, trying to do my best. I hope this song touches hearts and adds inspiration and hope to those it reaches. Keep Trying!” -Peace & Love, Caroline
