Forum pick: Learning exercises

[Administrator]

Learning exercises, eh? To paraphrase a famous anti-war poem by a real warrior (Wilfrid Owen): ‘If you had to go door-to-door/& Inform the families of the deaths of fathers, sons, moms, & daughters/You would not tell/With such high zest/To children ardent for some desperate glory/The old lie: War’s a learning exercise.’ ”
