Milnet.ca's Fallen Comrades

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



It's Tommy this, and Tommy that, And chuck him out the brute,
But it's 'Savior of his Country,' When the guns begin to shoot!
For God and the soldier we adore, In time of danger, not before!
The danger passed, and all things righted, God is forgotten and the soldier slighted.

- Rudyard Kipling
