We are still living with the aftermath of that war almost 100 years later.
That is true, as reflected not only in regards to current events, for example, look at all the ME uprisings, an effort to erase “borders” and to try to bring back even what we thought could never be seen, a possible Muslim empire.
But while there are aftereffects, the people who were there, who could best explain, are now gone.
I am so fortunate to have known intimately as a child and young man several men in my family that had served so valiantly and horrifically in the
“War to End All War”,
“The War to make the World Safe For Democracy”
“The War Against the Hun”
They had no illusions as to the greatness of the cause for which they sacrified lungs, knees, eyes.
And they told me so.
God Blesses those honest men
