Navy.ca's Fallen Comrades

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old

There are some militarists who say: We are not interested in politics but only in the profession of arms. It is vital that these simple-minded militarists be made to realize the relationship that exists between politics and military affairs. Military action is a method used to attain a political goal. While military affairs and political affairs are not identical, it is impossible to isolate one from the other.

- Mao Tse-Tung
