Quotation of the Day for June 7, 2010I knew my days were numbered when o'er the trenches lumbered More modern machinations de la guerre No match for rapid fire or the steel birds of the sky With a final rear guard action I retreat No match for tangled wire or the armoured engines whine Reluctant I retire and take my leave Today I ride with special forces on those wily Afghan horses Dostum's Northern Alliance give their thanks No matter defeat or victory, in battle it occurs to me That we may see a swelling in our ranks - Corb Lund, singing about the cavalry, from the song Horse Soldier! Horse Soldier!, recorded on his 2007 album of the same name. Submitted by: Terry Labach Apr. 14, 2010 |
