They have no grave but the cruel sea, no flowers lay at their head
A rusting hulk is their tombstone, afast on the ocean bed.
They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them
Lest We Forget
'for freedom we served'
