Few things inspire joy like the END of war. My grandfather
told me about being in the field in Missouri and having a
locomotive come down the track with a man banging on the side of the tender with a sledge hammer to get people's attention and yelling “The war’s over!” at the top of his lungs at the end of WWI.

Of course those who were wise knew that it was just a temporary peace...five years later there we were in Korea.
