“In the pathetic inertness of their sprawling bodies, they somehow, perhaps because of their surroundings, looked more like inanimate objects than bodies that once were living men, and in the growing darkness their faces began to resemble those of mummies. If war robs death of its majesty, nature compensates by covering up some of the gruesomeness, enabling active men to keep sane.”
–Otto D. Tolischus in a New York Time story, Sept. 29, 1939, from “Reporting World War II, Part One” (2001)
