Collecting the souls of the brave from the battle field .
There is a socially reinforced concept that Our life, Our Soul or Spirit takes on a unique character when it is given up for something more than individual self interest.
Dying for a cause, martyred for a reason, things that carry with them a special sacred gift of intent and purpose, will and direction,
A lingering action and affect on the world and the living that needs to be remembered, recounted.
