All wars end up being reduced to statistics, strategies, debates about their origins and results.
These debates about war are important, but not more important than the human story of those who fought in them . The larks, still bravely singing, fly Scarce heard amid the guns below. We are the Dead. Short days ago We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow, Loved and were loved, and now we lie, In Flanders fields. We shall not sleep, though poppies grow In Flanders fields.
