I was reading about battle of Kursk. During Soviet battle against Germany, 10 million Soviet soldiers died, 3 million Germans. I was thinking that most of them died with no one remembering who they are, or what they did, and then I thought, but here I am reading about it, and feeling a sense of awe regarding their sacrifice, the bravery, and then I realized that while we may not no their individual names, we know the event that they contributed too, and none of the lines of that story tell of cowards who shirked their duty, or ran away is the face of death. And I said out loud, what more can you ask that your death be associated with such an awesome event.
