Many of the more positive pieces I have posted have been based on tradition, notably family tradition. Usually in Rome. This one is not.
Just because something has "always" been done in a certain way does not make it correct, even if it does become a tradition. And, this particular tradition is one I loath. It is a universal one, world-wide and open ended on the time scale.
Every nation know to man either has or had an army...trained to kill. At a cost beyond recognition, tolerance, acceptance. The cost in terms of dollars and cents maybe.
In anguish...unfathomable! And in the end...
When Johnny comes Marching Home? Not ONE penny to reintroduce him to normalcy! Ah, that's a wonderful tradition!
This is my on line "Collector's Cabinet". It is non-profit and haphazard at best. I leave it to you to sort through and make sense of.The views are mine. The collection reflects some of my interests. But the material must be credited to the vast internet. Otherwise, I never would have been able to amass such a treasure trove. The purpose of this exercise is entertainment, naturally mine, but even more so yours. So, please let me know if anything strikes a chord with you.
