anything could make us wish tto forget the boer war of 1891 1 1902 it would be tht flood of books produced ubout it and the statesmen of that time it is gqucstlumiblc whkh one blunder ed the most understood duty heroes appear in print and on thl movie sereen but not vcr often on soldiers lips soldiers at that time us well as in later years understood thai duty was belter than selfintlrest and
