They were young when they left and jolly. They sang as they sailed down the Clyde, westwards towards the sun-burnished hills of the Mull of Kintyre. As the light faded across the water, one of them climbed the rigging and waved to a lonely figure standing on a mound by the shoreline. They didn't know where they were going. They didn't really care. They didn't want to fight. They hardly knew what the war was about. But they went, together, singing, to what lay before them.
