附录（3）
这并不意味着你们是战争贩子。相反，士兵比其他人更诚心祈求和平，因为士兵必须忍受战争最深刻的伤痛。但是，我们的耳边经常响起那位伟大的哲学之父柏拉图的警世之言：“只有死者看过战争的终结。”
我的生命已近黄昏，暮色已经降临。我昔日的风采和荣誉已经消失。它们随着对昔日事业的憧憬，带着那余晖消失了。昔日的回忆是非常美好的，是以泪水洗涤，以昨天的微笑抚慰的。我渴望但徒然地聆听着远处那微弱而迷人的起床号声，那咚咚作响的军鼓声。在梦境里，我又听到隆隆的炮声，滑膛枪的射击声，战场上古怪而悲伤的低语声。然而，在我黄昏的记忆中，我时常回到西点，耳边始终回响着：责任、荣誉、国家。
今天标志我对你们的最后一次点名。但我希望你们知道，当我死去时，我最后想到的一定是你们这支部队——这支部队——这支部队。
我向你们珍重道别。
