‘“It is well that war is so terrible,” observed Robert E. Lee as he watched his army slaughter Union troops at Fredericksburg, “or we should grow too fond of it.” No one understands that lesson better than the soldiers who have fought our wars on the front lines and the soldiers who have honored the sacrifices of our fallen at places like Arlington and Dover. We know that sometimes our nation must wage war to defend all that we hold dear, but we also know the terrible costs inflicted by war.’ https://imprimis.hillsdale.edu/sacred-duty-soldiers-tour-arlington-national-cemetery/?utm_campaign=imprimis&utm_source=housefile&utm_medium=email&utm_content=aprilmay2019sacredduty&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-_9Wjoy_LtLSGJH5Ln9XS0tMJdADlKPAqiDmxceQuZGoaQFB7ZCpYin7CU_S6UiCcsdH7HFXY5JZe8fhHTnrnZmob1T7Q&_hsmi=72653428
