The sacrifice of the few for the freedom of the many

I always thought of the great wars as us aginst them, till i went to remberence day where I live now which is a German Mennonite community and see the families here with a deceased family who served on the German sides alongside familys that served with the Allies and then there are some where relatives served and were killed on both sides depending where they lived . It brought to me a different view of the wars and how it affected everyone and should be remembered,respected and not repeated
