             Many of those men that went into the war thought they would come out alive and safe. Little did they know, they would die and have to leave their families behind. Many of the men had gotten married. Some of the men that died had unborn children in their wive's womb. Many of the men had a worried father, mother and siblings waiting for their arrival back home. Imagine the sorrow and grief these people had to go through after the death of their loved ones. It made families regret encouraging their son to enlist in the army. Their attitude towards the war had
             dramatically changed. Their optimistic and proud attitude on sending their sons into the war turned to be regretful and extremely negative.
             Siegfried Sassoon, Wilfred Owen, and Isaac Rosenberg were British poets who were against the war. They felt that the war could have been avoided and there were many unnecessary lives taken in the duration of the war (Spender 3). These men also had first hand experiences serving in the war and were surrounded by young men dying every single day. They expressed their experiences through their writings.
