Army.ca's Fallen Comrades

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



[The] aim is not so much to seek battle as to seek a strategic situation so advantageous that if it does not of itself produce the decision, its continuation by a battle is sure to achieve this. In other words, dislocation is the aim of strategy.

- Sir Basil H. Liddel-Hart
