Hiya Conor!!

Yeah, Sgt. York is a legend.

I believe Gary Cooper portrayed him in the movie.

Great shot, great hero!

[PROCON]

Hi FRiend, are you also a York, or just paying tribute to him?

[ConorMacNessa]

Right - it was Gary Cooper in the movie.

Rest in Peace, fallen brother, rest in peace!
We who remain hold you in high honor.
Rest, fallen brother, in this sacred precinct;
We who remain keep this place sacred.
Rest, fallen brother, among these, your comrades;
We who remain keep the watch.
Rest, fallen brother, among these who answered the Nation’s call;
We who remain press the fight forward in your name.
Rest, fallen brother, lay down thy burden;
We who remain have taken up the torch.
Rest in Peace, fallen brother, rest in eternal peace!
