Beautiful and haunting. Soldiers fallen proudly and honorably served their countries. All soldiers should be honored and remembered for the sacrifices they and family endure.

Thanks jp.  AC showed me the winged horses ... they beautiful there are strong male and females beside each one and i decided to read about winged horses.. then i wrote the poem. 

Soldiers should be honored, but the living ones need to be as well. We don't treat them very well...

This is beautiful, tim. Images stirred and voices recalled - you bring them to the front of our minds, that we may always remember. You impelled us to the mountaintop, line by line, step by step. Bravo.
