Remembrance Tattoo

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.

Read each of the stories and it bring's home that these lad's are just like mine.

Edward Vakabua is particularly tragic, the effect on both sides of this horrible accident will live on through both families :(
