"We few, we happy few, we band of brothers. For he today who sheds his blood with me shall be my brother. Be he ne'er so vile, this day shall gentle his condition. And gentlemen in England, now abed, shall think themselves accursed they were not here, and hold their manhood's cheap when any speaks who fought with us upon St. Crispin's Day!" Henry V, act 4, scene 3. Wm Shakespeare
