I think this is what YouTube does best, bringing the messages of real people--not actors, performers or entertainers--to hopefully interested viewers. Thanks to everyone involved in making this video, but most especially to the veterans who spoke Kipling's words as though they were their own.

Dr. Milroy - this is very powerful. Thank you for doing doing this and all the wonderful work you do. I work with the Mancini team at VT and this is very relevant to me personally and professionally.
