Lest We Forget...Again

[Brakie]

Can you imagine being one of those young men - I assume they knew what was about to happen when they boarded the ships - that there was a good chance they werent coming home in one piece. How does one prepare for that at such a young age? War is such a confusing thing.

Kevin,The closest I can explain their feelings knowing you are about to attack a strong hold and know you are facing a determined enemy.Its not a good feeling,but,you go knowing today just may be your last and should you survive you face the night and its many dangers..Come morning you start anew with death tugging at your elbow every second of every minute of the day.

Then the first thing you know you're either dead or going home.

There is no glory in war for either side.
