found this on a page called 'Way of the Warrior'. While I appreciate it is a quote from 300, at least in the film Leonidas was unaware that the Spartans would retreat, a lot, and indeed surrender at Sphacteria (425 B.C.) . . . this quote would not have aged well! #badancient
Easy to forget that these memorials are still sites of ritual activity. The poppies, teddies, and notes have all been removed from this one in Denton, in preparation for the next Remembrance Day. Never seen it so… https://t.co/vN2SAREgO0
