To the

MOTHERS

WHO WERE EVER THOUGHTFUL OF THEIR

AND HAVE PASSED TO THE OTHER SIDE, ALSO TO MY

COMRADES

WHO HAVE BEEN LEFT BEHIND TO FIGHT
THE BATTLE OF LIFE,

IS RESPECTFULLY DEDICATED, WITH THE HOPE
THAT THE MEMORIES IT WILL REVIVE
WILL SERVE TO UNITE US AS STRONGLY IN THE FUTURE
AS IN THOSE DAYS OF
