Canadian Army, Brig. Gen. Simon Heatherington, commander, NATO Training Mission Afghanistan, speaks at the NATO Training Mission Afghanistan (NTM-A) Casing of the Colors Ceremony on Sept. 3, 2014 at New Kabul Compound, Kabul, Afghanistan. Heatherington reminded those in attendance that, "We must always remember those who've gone before us and made the ultimate sacrifice in doing so and with such thoughts, I'm always brought back to the words of a Canadian soldier who wrote a poem in the first World War, imagine what the dead and fallen of the trenches could speak, if they could say something to the living. Those words were ‘...to you from failing hands we throw the torch, be yours to hold it high…’" (U.S. Army National Guard photo by Capt. Leslie Reed/Released)
