Navy.ca's Fallen Comrades

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



War is a quarrel between two thieves too cowardly to fight their own battle; therefore they take boys from one village and another village, stick them into uniforms, equip them with guns, and let them loose like wild beasts against one other.

- Thomas Carlyle
