Robert Henry Halsall

In memoriam

"And they who for their country die shall fill an honored grave, for glory lights the soldier's tomb, and beauty weeps the brave." (Joseph Drake) ★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★ BRITISH ARMY SOUTH LANCASHIRE REGIMENT PRIVATE COMPANY B 9th BATTALION Service #13607 BRITISH VICTORY STAR (WWI) WAR MEDAL (WWI) Killed In Action Private Halsall was the son of John and Elizabeth. ★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★ "These heroes are dead. They died for liberty - they died for us. They are at rest. They may or may not sleep in the land they made free, under the flag they rendered stainless, under the solemn pines, the sad hemlocks, the tearful willows, and the embracing vines. They sleep beneath the shadows of the clouds, careless alike of sunshine or of storm, each in the windowless Place of Rest. Earth may run red with other wars - they are at peace. In the midst of battle, in the roar of conflict, they found the serenity of death. I have one sentiment for soldiers living and dead: cheers for the living; tears for the dead." ~Robert G. Ingersoll
