Rememberance
Remember the Fallen
and the Fighters
for through their Toil
in air, sea, and soil
We rise to see another day.
They shall not grow old,
or see the peace after war,
having paid in blood and valour,
but are Eternal
in Our Minds and Hearts.

Perhaps it may be late there, but not here in the states, where we are just beginning our Veterans Appreciation Week.

Gave a fair portrayal on soldiers on both sides of the Western Front; treated them as humans not fodder or villains.
