Lest We Forget Augustana, 1943 ' 44 . . . winter days of warm sunlight on Old Main ' s yellow stones aging with a mellow grayness . . . chapel talks within bringing a daily beauty in our lives . . . khaki and tweeds pattern- ing our halls, classrooms, and walks . . . choir rehearsals in Denkmann, blend of word and note in the infinite . . . letters stamped from Normal, South Pacific, Italy, somewhere in nowhere, fiUing mail-boxes ... a Vi-King crowned with a blue sailor, U.S. Navy ... a longer service Honor Roll with added gold stars ... Lest We Forget is the theme we have chosen for the 1944 Rockety-I. For those of us who enjoyed this past year ' s fellowship and study it means, in part, the recording of results as we leaf through this pictorial record, but it carries as well a hint of gentle admonition lest we forget the men and women who, imbued with Augustana memories, deep-seated and lasting, are giving their lives in defense of Augustana ideals. To me Augie means all that is worth fighting for, namely Christian democracy in action. Moreover, I believe that Augie is training and will continue to train men and women with living faith that will enable them to build a more peaceful and creative world . . . ' we ' ll win for Augustana ' ... words from a soldier inspiring us with courage, faith, and hope, lest we forget that in this present world cauldron of bitterness, smoky confusion, and hate, there is still a center for our memories, our hopes, our ideals, our faith . . . Augustana.
