Hi Carman
Perhaps you already know it but I thought you might be interested to read this poem by Siegfried Sassoon BASE DETAILS ...

... And when the war is done and youth stone dead, I'd toddle safely home and die--in bed.

Hi Matt.

No. I don't know the poem, but it's certainly powerful. Those last two lines strike me ... and make me think, yet again, how unaware so many people are that what was done and sacrificed by others is responsible for MAKING toddling safely home to die in bed even a possibility. It took someone elses effort to turn that into a possibility, then a probability, and it takes effort and sacrifce to protect and maintain. Nothing happens in isolation?

Blood, sweat, and tears ...
