God and the Soldier

Become a Fan

Scratched into the wall of a sentry box on the Island of Gibraltar is an unsigned message from a soldier.

God and the Soldier, all men adore,

In time of danger and not before.

When the danger is passed and all things righted,

God is forgotten, and the Soldier slighted.
