Really moved by those pictures of soldiers' bedrooms

Tears to my eyes.
The emptiness, the physicality of it, the many similarities
(those flags, those quilts)...
The neat order, never to be disturbed again by the living presence of those who belonged there.
The waste of it all...
Dulce et decorum est pro patria mori
