Duty Honor Country - Audio (P13 - 16)




The code //which those words perpetuate //




embraces /the highest /moral laws /




and will stand the test /of any ethics or philosophies /ever promulgated for the uplift of mankind. //




Its requirements //are for the things /that are right//




and its restraints /are from the things /that are wrong. //




The soldier/above all other men//




is required to practice /the greatest act /of religious training /-- sacrifice. //




In battle /and in the face of danger and death//




he discloses those /divine attributes which his Maker gave /when he created man in his own image. //




No physical courage /and no brute instinct //can take the place///




of the Divine /help //which alone //can sustain him. //




However horrible //the incidents of war may be//




the soldier //who is called upon to offer /and to give his life for his country /is the noblest /development /of mankind. //
