No. In all its long and glorious history , the British Army has never been called upon to take the field for a cause more just than that which is ours today ; it has never entered on a campaign of which the issues were graver or more vital to the future of our race , and , indeed , of all civilization . OFFICE STAMP I know well that you realize what is at stake , and that , in the struggle which lies ahead , every man in my Armies will play his part with gallantry and devotion .
