Read that poem in college.
Then when I was hospitalized after my surgery they put me in rehab. The first man, already there, had been medically discharged from the Marines after a Japanese soldier stich ed a line of bullets across his chest with a machine gun. That man was 95.
A couple of days later another old man came in, also 95, who was mostly deaf...because he was a ball turret gunner in WWII. over aeuope. Hearing protection wasn't a thing back then.
