Right in the van, On the red ramparts slippery swell...
With heart that beat a charge, he fell,
Foeward, as fits a man
But the high soul burns on to light men's feet
Where death for noble ends makes dying sweet
On this day in 1863, the Massachusett 54th Regiment, led by Colonel Robert Gould Shaw, proved to the world that such courage and nobleness of soul would never be forgotten.
This is the same post from last year, but the setiments are exactly the same, so I thought it fitting.
