There but for the grace of God go I.
Some say Eric Bogle's song is mawkish and overly sentimental, but it still makes the hairs stand up on the back of my neck.
The fact that we still have troops fighting and dying overseas for a cause that some feel is no longer worth the cost in lives makes it even more relevant.
With you on this one.
ReplyDeleteI love Eric Bogle and remember hearing this first by the Pogues, great song and great and true message. Personally I prefer Green Fields of France by him. May we never forget their sacrifice.
