The flag waves softly,
Colors of sacrifice bold,
Each thread tells a tale.
They stood when the world faltered,
Guardians of our freedom.

“War is not an adventure. It is a disease. It is like typhus.”
— Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

“We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender.”
— Winston Churchill

The March of Courage

Worn boots on the path,
Marching through the weight of time,
Memories of pain.
Yet courage fuels each heartbeat,
A testament to their fight.

The Drop

Airborne spirits soar,
Clouds cradle the fallen’s dreams,
Wisps of valour’s grace.
In each gust, their stories told,
Bravery etched in the sky.

Fallen Heroes

Cannon fire echoes,
A mother’s heart breaks in two,
Lost son on the field.
Yet she stands with pride and grace,
His name wrapped in honours stone.

In the shadows of fear

Bonds of Courage

In shadowy trenches,
Brotherhood forged through despair,
Each soldier a light.
Their laughter pierces the night,
In memories, they will stay.

Maiwand Glory in Defeat One

Maiwand Glory in Defeat Two

Tears of Mothers

Cannon fire echoes,
A mother’s heart breaks in two,
Lost son on the field.
Yet she stands with pride and grace,
His name wrapped in honours stone.
