To the Forgotten
To The Forgotten
Military history is written by the victors.
Generals and politicians who stamp
their names on the pages of books
written by men and women in ivory towers.
It is actually made by the common:
legionnaire, dog face, doughboy, airman,
seaman and marine. Most names unknown
to those that write the histories.
But every name a known part of a life story
to a mother, father, spouse or child who’ve
watched their loved ones go off to help
someone else make history.
