Subject: RE: Do purists really exist?
On the Bogle song drift. Keith also seems to opt to ignore this verse in TBPWM:
And now every April I sit on my porch
And I watch the parade pass before me
my old comrades, how proudly they march
Reliving dreams of past glory
The forgotten heroes a forgotten war
And the young people ask , "What are they Marching for?"
And I ask myself the same question
This is hardly suggesting the narrators view was the prevailing view of his comrades - even years after the event.
