They shall not grow old,
As we that are left to 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.

Ode" or

By now death
had become a familiar, and they talked about it in a half derisive deprecating
slang. In the same way as the Chinese will laugh at other peoples pain it
became a huge joke when the men bathing off the beach were caught in a burst
of schrapnel, or when some poor devil had his head blown off while he was in
the latrine. There had to be some sort of expression which would help to
rationalize the unbearable circumstances of their lives, and some way to
obtaining relief from the shock of it all, and since tears were impossible
this callous hard-boiled laughter became the thing. They were not fatalists.
They believed that a mistake had been made in the landing at Gabatepe and that
they might easily have to pay for it with their lives : but they very much
wanted to go on living, they were all for the battle and they hoped and
believed obscurely that in the end they would win.
Gallipoli, (Ware 1997), Alan Moorehead, p. 148
