Memorial Day Address 1919
BY CARL A. THRAEN.

Your Excellency, Officers of the Navy,
and of the Marine Corps, Revd. Clergy
men, Ladies and Gentlemen.
We are gathered here today to take
part in the Memorial Exercises appropri-
ate to Decoration Day, thus to manifest
and prove our sincere love and apprecia-
ton for the glorious and valiant deeds
performed during the lifetime of our de
parted soldiers and sailors.
The day is named Decoration Day, pre-
sumabIy from the fact that we decorate
with choicest flowers the graves Of our
brave boys who have fallen in battle, or
otherwise, for their country's cause.

and encouraged by the eagerness of his
men 70 enter the fight, gave the order to
go over the top; and by their splendid
lighting contributed materially and NOR
ally to that initial victory which definite
ly turned the tide of battle in favour Of
the Allies.
Not only the interpidity displayed by
the Americans at Cha. Thierry, and else
where. and their magnificent elan have
been acknowledge, but also the moral
effect: for it heartened the Allies, and
gave them by this initial victory the as
surance that their plans for the defeat
OF the common enemy would eVentuate
early.
Hypothetically then, we may be allowed
postulate that the Cha. Thierry victory
won solely by our American boys,
gave an earlier date to the Armistice.
But we are not gathered here today to
chronicle the events of this war that has
brought ruin and desolation to the fairest
spots of Europe, and turned them into a
Verltable shambjes, but rather and for
the express purpose Of doing honour to
our dead countrymen: the flower Of
Americas young manhood, who in the
spring time of their life were called up
on to make the supreme sacrifice for their
PATRlA And they responded to the
call willingly and whoIe-heartedIy-al
classes, all faiths and we here are proud
to know that cur VIRGIN ISLANDERS
too were among the number.
How glorious and sweet it is. say the
Old Latin phrase, to die for ones coun-
try Yes, it is glorious, but it calls for
sacrifice. Sacrifice Of all that the human
heart holds most dear-Father, Mother,
Wife, Sister, Brother: Yea, and all these
have been sacrificed by those OF our boys
who have died in this war.
They went forth at their country's call,
to vindi eate her cause, to fight for her
Ideals to redress the wrongs their eoun-
try had suffered and they in turn suffer-
ed and they in turn suffered all the
hardShip5. all the horrors incidental to
war the unimaginable tortures Of bodi-
ly pain, and mental strain, brought about
by those powerful agencies of d%estruc-
ton which the ingenuity Of man aided by
science has perfected. And in their death
they have eXempli6ed the highest and
noblest act of love. To die that others

their memory are not only commemora-
tive as such, but they also constitute a
memorial of undying gratitude for their
chivalrous response to their country's
call of duty.
1t is now about fifty years since this
beautiful custom of hOnOring the nations
heroes was first introduced into the life
Of III cOuntrymen, and since its first in
cepti0n, has been extended year by year
until today it is observed in every part
Of the union, and is considered one of the
greatest of our National Holidays. And
whilst this custom in modern times is
peculiarly national to our United States,
nevertheless, memorial exercises IN hon
our of national heroes have ever been
observed in one way or another by the
nations of old.
In ancient Jewish history we find that
the valiant Judas Machabeus after his
celebrated victory over Gorgias, was
mindful Of those Of his soldiers who had
fallen in the battle, and he sent to the
Temple an offering Of silver; and after
giving his reasons for The sending of
his offering and the purpose thereof, he
concluded by saying that it is good and
wholesome to do so. Yes it is a good and
wholesome thought to remember our
dead. And in this year Of grace when
the most bloody war of all history is end
cd, it is no. only good and wholesome,
but also right, just and meet that we
Should commemorate ii an especial man
ner the glorious part taken by our brave
boys who are now in eternity.
And whilst the chronicle OF their valor-
Gus fight. their bravery, their discipline,
their splendid dash in attack, their stead
mess and nerve when engaged in the
hottest of the battles are of recent date
and are known to US all; nevertheless
a word Of praise in passing will not be
out of place in these solemn exercises.
Beginning at the Chateau Thierry sal
lent, fifty miles from Paris, right along
the Aisne and by the Vesle into the
Champagne, and beyond unit! they
reached the Moselle, we witness a series
OF engagements which from a military
view point sends a thrill of admiration
through your whole being at the magni6-
cent display of endurance and hard fight
ing Oy the rank and file, and the spIen-
did generalship of the Officers that re-
suited in hard won, but nevertheless
grand victories, and for lack of which
the war, for ought we know, might yet
be prolonged.

Cha. Thierry had not received orders to
move forward. but the Commanding Off
