FATHER
Illustration★★★★A boy returned from the European war saying that the thing that had helped him most during the long months of fighting was the remembrance of his father’s hand on his shoulder when the father, unable to speak, had seen him off from New York. will remember me not from the battle, but in the home, repeating with him one simple daily prayer, ‘Our Father which art in heaven.”
The point
A soldier's deepest memory of support during combat was his father's hand on his shoulder and their shared prayer 'Our Father.'
