We Are At War

I recently read a NY Times review of Nina Berman's photographs of injured Iraq War Veterans called Purple Hearts. One of the photos they showed (not on the front page) was so disturbing that I had pushed it out of my mind until I was rereading Owen's poem. I know it shouldn't take these kinds of images to help me realize we are at war, but sometimes it does.

Oh my God-that is so sad! It's awful but so hard to look away.

It is a difficult photo.
