Veterans Day is increasingly consequential. Across the West, millions of veterans (from Normandy to Kandahar) are asking the same question: What was it all for? A British veteran said it plainly through tears: “Rows and rows of white tombs, for what? A country of today? No, I’m sorry. The sacrifice wasn’t worth the result. I fought for freedom, and it’s worse now than when I fought.” You’d do well to listen to the warriors. Nothing cuts deeper than when a Soldier steps back and sees the 50,000 foot view of his war, and wonders what he actually defended. A warrior fights for one thing above all: home. Even on some foreign shore, his thoughts drift back there. When he leaves the uniform, he hopes it was worth it. But when he returns to find his home unrecognizable…its values inverted, its spirit fading…..something ancient stirs. It is the pain that forged nations. The same pain that once sent men to battle. Beware that pain. Because when enough warriors start feeling it again, history doesn’t repeat itself. It answers. And it does so with a thunderous clash. A clash so loud, the whole world stops dead in its tracks.
