520			_a"How Rifleman Brown Came to Valhalla" by Gilbert Frankau is a war poem written during the early 20th century, specifically in the context of World War I. This literary work serves as a poignant tribute to the unsung heroes of war, focusing on the experiences and sacrifices of ordinary soldiers. The poem explores themes of valor, camaraderie, and the recognition of bravery in the face of death, highlighting the complex emotions associated with warfare. In this narrative poem, Rifleman Joseph Brown arrives in Valhalla, a mythical place of honor for fallen warriors, unscathed and untouched by the horrors of battle. He grapples with his identity and worth among the dead who have faced grave injuries. Through a fellow soldier’s recounting of a critical moment in the trenches, Brown's brave act of warning his comrades about a gas attack earns him acceptance among the warriors of Valhalla. Ultimately, the poem articulates the deep respect and acknowledgment that should be afforded to all servicemen who risk their lives in combat, regardless of their physical scars.
