Navy.ca's Fallen Comrades

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



Persistency. All men have wandering impulses, fits and starts of generosity. But when you have resolved to be great, abide by yourself, and do not weakly try to reconcile yourself with the world. The heroic cannot be common, nor the common heroic.

- Ralph Waldo Emerson
