All are treated with equality. It is not our task to explain why they died - just to remember the sacrifice.
Well over 100 international rugby players from the major rugby-playing nations died during World War 1 alone. That is not to count those international players from the minor nations (such as Germany, for example, who lost 16 international players in World War 2).
Beyond that number are all of the many thousands of club players who perished in the wars, never having made it to international level. |
