No Man Deserved Less At Her Hands

I have to be honest I feel no pity for this man, however it did remind me of one of my favorite short stories The Man Without a Country By Edward Everett Hale. I could throw a few cliches around such as "Be careful what you wish for" or "You dont appreciate something until its gone" but instead I will implore of you to read this story and make your own interpretations of what Patriotism means to people such as this and more importantly what it means to you.
