Dulce et Decorum est Pro Patria Mori - The Truth or a Lie? Many a man at war has used this statement, some still believe this statement, even today, but most have seen the dark side of war. Do I think this statement is true? This is what I am going to discover. I am going to look at poems from wars before and during world war one. People have always, at some point in history, been at war for whatever reason and statements have been made to rally troops and encourage them for battle. But whether 'it is sweet and fitting to die for one's country' is debatable. My personal opinion is that war in itself may sometimes be needed, but people will always die in them and nothing will ever change that and so this I have to disagree with as it is always old men who start wars...
