"War is wrong and horrible ... and it has always been so. But until humans
learn better, the best among us will continue to serve and offer to protect their
societies. In doing that, there is sacrifice for all ... and death, injury, and unending
sickness for some. The sacrifices were offered by all who served ... chance, skill,
enemy, and luck determined who would survive. Heroism was given and honor
earned on all sides ... by friend and foe alike ... which cannot be denied or ignored or
forgotten. It reaches to the living from the military cemeteries of the world and the
thousands of mass graves and trenches of the fallen unknown. And while all survivors
are owed a debt by their countries ... they, in turn, are charged with a duty to their
comrades to assure that none will be forgotten. Forever."

Unknown Death Date

BROOKS, Richard L.

There is a quatrain, taken from an old ZORK computer game, used as a toast
and recognition. I've used it on my grandsons and they all now greet me this way.
The lines are recited by two people, each saying an alternate line ... either can go first.
It struck me that the surviving members of the 482nd might understand the bittersweetness.
So here is my suggestion for our "unofficial" toast ... to us ... and to those departed. GCW

HERE'S TO US.
WHO'S LIKE US?
DAMNED FEW.
AND THEY'RE ALL DEAD!

"Solace"

Composed in 1909 by Scott Joplin.
Sequenced by the late John E. Roache.

482nd FIS Webmaster: George C. Willick
