Constellation: The Fighter

During a time that was full of uncertainty and sorrow, 

a pilot flying a helicopter into battle, glanced 

up at the stars, 

he could not believe what he was seeing

in the sky,

he was looking at a group of stars with a

likeness to the aircraft he was operating.

Whilst hovering in the air to allow the squadron

of soldiers to depart, behind enemy lines,

he glimpsed once more at the amazing

spectacle above,

he asked himself: how many of these young lads

will I ever see again?

Will I make it back home?

Will I survive this nightmare that we are all living?

He landed safely back at base and was informed

that the war had ended.

When he finally arrived home to his loving family,

he shared his moment of stillness as he explained

what he saw.

He then took his family outside and guided their

eyes towards the constellation.

He told them to pass down from generation

to generation this magical illustration,

so that our family will never forget the millions

of people who served and died during WWII.
