Iowa Boys Who Have Sacrificed Their Lives That Democracy Might
Live |
Lest We Forget
These sons of Iowa shall be our heroes until the end of
time. We cannot bring them back to life, nor can we heal
the broken hearts of those mothers and fathers who gave
their boys to the cause of liberty.
But in
every county in Iowa there should be built a permanent
memorial, that, with the coming of each new dawn, will
remind us not only of the final sacrifice these boys
have made, but also of the ideals for which they fought. |
