ReplyDeletepoignant and pertinent. YAM!
And those people shouldn't be forgotten...
ReplyDeletetrue....far too often the reasons are forgotten...
ReplyDeleteand many times the soldiers that gave their lives
in the conflict as well..
Should always remember
ReplyDeletefar too many for useless reasons most times, all should be remembered indeed
ReplyDeleteYes, they are! Nicely put.
ReplyDeleteGood point! Thanks for stopping by, Hank the Rhyming Tank!
ReplyDeleteVery succinct, Hank!! I had thought about writing about 'dying with boots on' but decided to do other. Then my word count kept me from saying all I wanted.

What a lovely sentiment. What a lovely piece.
ReplyDeleteYou've packed a lot of truth, images and emotions into a few words. Well done!
