Army.ca's Fallen Comrades

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old



We must carry the war into every corner the enemy happens to carry it: to his home, to his centers of entertainment; a total war. It is necessary to prevent him from having a moment of peace, a quiet moment outside his barracks or even inside; we must attack him wherever he may be, make him feel like a cornered beast wherever he may move.

- Ernesto "Che" Guevara
