Couldn't agree more Tom, it seems such a waste.
I always get to thinking of my uncle:

Private Joseph Henry Simons 21st Batalion Australian Army
Died 03/05/1917
Villers Bretonneux-France
Age 38

12,000 miles away from home 87 years ago but we never forget him.

It is indeed a crazy world we live in.
Over a thousand young Americans lost as well - God rest their souls.
