Navy.ca's Fallen Comrades

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



We're all scared. But you hid in that ditch because you think there's still hope. But the only hope that you have is to accept the fact that you're already dead. The sooner you accept that, the sooner you'll be able to function as a soldier is supposed to function. Without mercy, without compassion, without remorse. All war depends upon it.
