 What a poignant tribute ~ Bernie it's a honor that you have their medals.  What a treasure and it's obvious you cherish.  Elyse

A very poignant evocation of WW1.  It appears even after all this time we haven't learned a thing with the unnecessary wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

That was so poignant! The end was magnificent for it seems we fight for the same ground as it were with no calculable gain! Such exquisite imagery, too! sam

Very well put

You've said it all here Bernie, I shouldn't think there are many families who have escaped the loss.
