Thank you for posting this poem, I don't know if it is possible, but could this be put in a place where it could be easier to find. Everyone here should have a chance to read it. It's hard to read, but needs to be read. RLTW. RIP gallant warriors.Jim wrote:Ranger Carl Monger wrote a poem for the occasion:
