The Present Day Soldiers Lost in Action

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

"We will redouble our efforts in southern Afghanistan in their memory."

Brig. Gen. David Fraser, commander of Combined Task Force Aegis
