Through The Eyes of The Soldier
Through The Eyes of The Soldier
What was once a battlefield soaked in blood is now just a grassy field, a wooded area, or maybe even a shopping center parking lot.
Battlefields are usually just an in-the-moment place. Obviously, the battle's tenure can, in fact, define a moment as decades-long.
Time has taught all societies that the atrocities of war are, unfortunately, a sad reality of life. All battles are born when the opposition of viewpoints heats to the point they ignite.
So, this Memorial Day, other than the furniture sale, the picnic, or whatever other desire is exploited even with the best intentions of the exploiter. Let's focus sometime for the remembrance of those fallen soldiers.
Glory on the battlefield does not come without the cries, torment, and horrors realized by the soldiers on the field.
It's the soldier's cries, torment, or required actions for what became their temporary survival that the fallen soldier spirit hopes those honoring will never have to visualize in the remembrance of their spirit.
However, it's in those visions through the eyes of the fallen soldiers that those remembering can truly understand the horrors of war. It's in through that understanding that there is a chance of limiting the need for war.
I believe the spirit of the fallen soldiers only rests in peace when the spirit of fallen soldiers crosses paths with those living in the peace they fought and died for.

Unaccountability merging with zero consequences
All organizations on journeys towards relevance will experience this unconscious incompetence. However, all leaders choose to either ensure accountability or ignore it. It is also important that consequences are embedded in accountability.
