Professor William James has said, "Man is, once for all, a fighting animal; centuries of peaceful history could not breed the battle instinct out of us and military virtue is the kind of virtue least in need of reinforcement by reflection, at least in need of orator's or poet's help." A rare quality than military valor in the citizens of our own land or of any land is that form of moral bravery known as civic courage. To deflect the battle instinct in the youth towards the fields of social service would be to contribute strength and hope to the nation.
