Afghanistan Deaths

Awful news this morning that six Soldiers have been killed in Afghanistan, Four from a Yorkshire reg. and two from a Lancs reg.
As they were in an Armoured vehicle it must have been some explosion.    Such a waste of young life.

Afghanistan Deaths

They went with songs to the battle, they were young,
Straight of limb, true of eye, steady and aglow,
They were staunch to the end against odds uncounted.
They fell with their faces to the foe.

They shall grow not old as we that are left grow old,
Age shall not weary them or the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning,
We will remember them.

What i find so sad John is that it seems such a fruitless waste of life over there. without reverting to history it seems no forces can win in that awful Godless country.
