VETERANS: They shall grow not old … … 

Tuesday, November 11, 2025

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.

Laurence Binyon
poem “For the Fallen” (1914)

[JR: Remember the generations of young men —  English, French, German, and American —  wiped out by aristocratic generals who didn’t care that the machine gun, artillery, tanks, and flame throwers had revolutionized “warfare”. Argh! So sad and so wasteful. Dona Nobis Pacem]
