like the song says
"The forgotten heroes a forgotten war
And the young people ask, "What are they
Marching for? "
And I ask myself the same question
And the band plays Waltzing Matilda
And the old men answer to the call
But year after year their numbers get fewer
Some day no one will march there at all"
they still hold memorials all across europe each year, but less and less veterans are able to make it
i guess there is something to say for a veteran dying of old age in his own bed.
but, if its any consolation, i havent forgotten, and ive taken my boy to a several war cemeteries across europe
