Rancocas Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 Just A Common Soldier, also known as A Soldier Died Today, is one of the most popular poems on the Internet. Written and published in 1987 by Canadian veteran and columnist A. Lawrence Vaincourt, it now appears in numerous anthologies, on thousands of websites and on July 4, 2008 it was carved into a marble monument at West Point, New York. This year marks the poem’s 25th anniversary. http://www.justacommonsoldier.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colorado Coffinmaker Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 I all you can do is whine and chide about the number of anniversaries, your a pretty sad commentary indeed. Listen to the poem instead. Coffinmaker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
