Read 2 input and produce it in single ouput?
Hi all.
I’ve 2 inputs here and would like to produce it in single ouput. I’ve drafted simple shell script but not sure how to put all this together. The final output should be “GROUP-XYZ” instead of “TEST”
Please advise.

INPUT1
Code:
GROUP-XYZ

INPUT2
Code:
type8code0@box:~/dbedit$ cat port.txt
80
443
type8code0@box:~/dbedit$


Expected output
Code:
type8code0@box:~/dbedit$ ./dbedit-script-service-group
   create service_group GROUP-XYZ
   create service_group GROUP-XYZ '' services:tcp80
   create service_group GROUP-XYZ '' services:tcp443
   type8code0@box:~/dbedit$

DRAFT SHELL SCRIPT
Code:
#!/bin/bash
   
   awk '{print "tcp"$1}' port.txt > temp-port.txt
   
   awk '{
   print "create service_group TEST";
   print "create service_group TEST \x27\x27 services:"$1;
   }' temp-port.txt

Unfortunately, this is not the expected output. Need to fix something on the draft code so that expected output can be produced. Please advise.
Code:
type8code0@box:~/dbedit$   ./dbedit-script-service-group
   create   service_group TEST
   create   service_group TEST '' services:tcp80
   create   service_group TEST
   create service_group   TEST '' services:tcp443
   type8code0@box:~/dbedit$
