Cher Ami - Remembered

Remembered

To American school children of the 1920s and 1930s, Cher Ami was as well known as any human World War I heroes. Cher Ami's body was later mounted by a taxidermist and enshrined in the Smithsonian Institution. It is currently on display with that of Sergeant Stubby in the National Museum of American History's "Price of Freedom" exhibit.

Famous quotes containing the word remembered:

    The rays which stream through the shutter will be no longer remembered when the shutter is wholly removed.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    To be remembered after we are dead, is but poor recompense for being treated with contempt while we are living.
    William Hazlitt (1778–1830)

    For winter’s rains and ruins are over,
    And all the seasons of snows and sins;
    The days dividing lover and lover,
    The light that loses, the night that wins;
    And time remembered is grief forgotten,
    And frosts are slain and flowers begotten,
    And in green underwood and cover
    Blossom by blossom the spring begins.
    —A.C. (Algernon Charles)
