just a thought

My grandmother still writing her memories, here a few lines:

The country was not the government,
Was not just the army,
The country were people,
Who in majority,
Did not except the defeat.
Who said together after all;
We would give it all.
In first hours thousands of men left homes,
Women smiled, cried,
We will be waiting here,
Or we go with you.
Our children believed:
Daddies will be back....
