Bravo to our brave soldiers. It was so nice to read about their courage. As the national song says: “Praise to the brave who fight for freedom and praise to those who have fallen during the battle. Do not despair, angels will crown them with diamond crowns of honor. They will meet their ancestors proudly riding wild horses” I hope that this ancient line of a Lithuanian song will reveal the essence of our national spirit. Thank you, Michael Yon for mentioning them in such a polite and honest manner. I am very proud of my countrymen today.
