They went with songs to the battle, they were young, Straight of limb, true of eye, steady and aglow. They were staunch to the end against odds uncounted; They fell with their faces to the foe. ~ Laurenc Binyon
That is such a beautiful and timely tribute. Thank you for sharing! With time I tend to forget about western holidays living here in Japan. Thank you for reminding me :)
Very poignant. I had forgotten that it was Remembrance Day as not much fuss is made about it anymore in South Africa which is a pity. One wants to feel that all those sad lost lives meant something.
