Beautiful tribute. Teddy and Quentin are American legends. Sadly Teddy IV supported the removal of his great grandfathers statue from the Museum of Natural History in NYC.
Whereas Ulysses Grant Dietz, the great-great-grandson of Ulysses S. Grant, is a prolific author of gay vampire porn.
How many of today's degenerates would have matured into heroes in an earlier age? And how many heroes of earlier ages would have matured into degenerates in ours?

To be fair that may be more success than Ulysses S. Grant ever managed to achieve in any civilian field when he wasn't playing off his military career.
It is almost impossible to think of a situation today where an enemy would treat someone actively trying to kill their compatriots with such respect. Thank you unidentified former book publisher for another great article justifying my continued subscription
The Allies treated The Red Baron with the same respect when he was finally gunned down. Honor cultures recognized heroism, regardless of whose side they were on. We are no longer an Honor culture.
Combining this interest in the lost cultural world of WW1 elites with your interest in movies, you should check out Renoir’s The Grand Illusion if you haven’t yet.
Also, I just have to say - yeah there are noble things about that culture but it’s also the culture that brought us WW1 which was the greatest disaster in the history of Western civilization (so far) and the suicide of Europe.
Wilson's War. My grandfather was a soldier in Europe. The psychologial damage affected my father, who was born later in 1929 and my brothers and sister. The Mustard Gas damage affected my grandfather's ability to maintain employment because he was always tired and frequently ill. Were it not for my great-grandparent's farm, my father would have gone hungry during the depression. Wilson's War led directly to WW2. If there is a God, a Heaven and a Hell, Woodrow Wilson is burning in Hell still.

Damn that really is sad. Imagine having a legacy like that and thinking your best route in life is trashing it instead of celebrating it

It’s about on par for the character of the former President as well.

It's weird to think how bleak the facts of Teddy's life are if you look at them a certain way, wife and child dying, sickness, getting shot etc
Don't forget the kamikaze pilot who hit the USS Missouri got a full military funeral including blanketed with a home made Japanese flag.
God I just love Teddy Roosevelt. He's the rare breed that deserves his hero worship

Amazing. These men are few and far between today.

You realize Wilson was among the only people in the government trying to keep us from going to war?
