Army.ca's Fallen Comrades

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

It is folly to imagine that the aggressive types, whether individuals or nations, can be bought off ... since the payment of danegeld stimulates a demand for more danegeld. But they can be curbed. Their very belief in force makes them more susceptible to the deterrent effect of a formidable opposing force.

- Sir Basil H. Liddel-Hart
