Text Appearing Before Image:
necessary to make the supreme sacrifice, always rememberthis —-1 am so firmly convinced that the ideals I am going to fight forare right and splendid that I am happy to be able to give so much forthem. I could not have any self-respect, I could not consider myself aman, if I saw these ideals defeated when it lies in my power to defend them.So I have no fears; I have no regrets; I have only to thank God for sucha wonderful opportunity to serve Him and the world. No, if I must makethe supreme sacrifice I will do it gladly and I will do it honorably andbravely, as your son should, and the life that I lay down will be my pre-paration for the grander, finer life that I shall take up. I shall live! Youmust not grieve. I shall be supremely happy — so must you — not thatI have gone West, but that I have bought such a wonderful life at sosmall a price and paid for it gladly. Brothers in Service — Norman Hillard MacLeish, 2d Lieut., 53d F.A.Archibald MacLeish, Capt., 146th F.A. ( 296 )
