44 Tribute It is only fitting that we, who are now enjoying the blessings of peace, should pause momentarily to pay tribute to those who died in the defense and service of our country-those Roosevelt boys who made the supreme sacrifice. We need not prepare eulogies for them. They would not wish it. Rather, let there be words of sincere gratitude from those who were fortunate enough to survive the terrible carnage that has so recently befallen us. They were ordinary boys, boys who lived with the spirit and the rashness of youth, and they valued every moment of existence. Death took their lives at a time when they were just beginning to learn, to see, to love, to understand. Many did not sincerely know why they were fighting, except to defend themselves and their loved ones. The high principles of Democracy as opposed to Fascism were not always clear to them. They were, mainly, helpless pawns sent into a raging conflict to fight an enemy they rarely saw. And yet they fought, bravely. Their place in history and in the hearts of all Americans is secure. Ours is not. It is for us, the living, to carry on where they left off, to brandish the torch of freedom high, as they tried to do, so that its light will illuminate the entire world and bring hope to all who shall stand in the path of its glorious rays. 6
