  • Men of Greenock Who Fell in the Great War 1914-1918
    1 Men of Greenock who Fell in the Great War 1914-1918 A Memorial Record MEN OF GREENOCK WHO FELL IN THE GREAT WAR, 1914-1918 Published by the War Memorial Committee Men of Greenock who Fell in the Great War 1914-1918 IN THIS BOOK ARE ENSHRINED THE NAMES OF OVER FIFTEEN HUNDRED MEN FROM THE TOWN OF GREENOCK WHO GAVE THEIR LIVES FOR THEIR COUNTRY IN THE GREAT WAR. Men of Greenock who Fell in the Great War 1914-1918 THE FIFTEEN HUNDRED AT THE CALL OF duty they left their homes and their dear ones; native born and incomer they went forth from the town, and they came not back again. By land and sea they endured hardship and faced danger, and finally passed from the sight of men through the shining gates of Self Sacrifice, giving up their lives that we might live without dishonour The heart knoweth its own bitterness, and we dare not even yet intrude with our sympathy into the homes where there is a chair for ever vacant and a voice for ever still. Only in silent gratitude can we honour the unreturning dead, lifting our hearts in the stillness to catch an echo of the voices we once heard, and a glimpse of the faces we once knew. "They shall grow not old, as we that are left 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." They are the unreturning dead. They gave all that man could give, poured out the rich blood of their Youth, thrust aside the chalice that Life held to their lips.
