What is it useful for? |
Remembering the dead is useful because we are human. Well, most of us ... I guess. It reminds us of the very personal cost of war. That each and every one of those crosses in the field are there for someone's son or brother or father. Whether they were the first, last or whatever ... doesn't really matter itself. What matters is that we remember what the last war cost us when we think of starting a new one.
Anthony Marchione's death isn't a useless fact. It's one of the most important things you can remember. |
