One Salute At A Time

War, Battles, Memorial Day, and Mark Helprin

“There’s nothing to tell about a war

unless you tell how it began …

When you get older,

battles of any sort

become far less interesting

than what led to them,

and what they brought about.

I know, I know.

I have three hooves

in the pasture

and one already in the grave …”

“A Soldier Of The Great War,”  Mark Helprin, p. 36

Memorial Day, 2011
