They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.

Lest We Forget

Rest Easy Soldier , Your reward awaits

We Are Diminished.
May You Rest In Peace With Your Brothers In Arms, Sir.
