THE STORY:
“In victory, the hero seeks the glory, not the prey.” - Sir Philip Sidney
Sir Philip Sidney’s words resonated with the soldiers of NH: Heroes fight for what they believe in - for what is right - and care not about the spoils of war. Once the war had officially begun on April 19, 1775, they, by the thousands, voluntarily left home to support the cause of liberty.
One of the oldest American battle flags in know existence is that of the 2nd New Hampshire Regiment, form in 1775 at the onset of the Revolution. Upon it reads the regimental motto selected by soldiers of New Hampshire: “The Glory, Not The Prey.”
The spirit & memory of the New Hampshire regiments - and the words of Sir Philip Sidney which inspired them - resonates deeply within the culture at Able; the work we put in everyday isn’t driven by the prospect of awards or to be touted as better than another. Rather, our motivation is the pursuit of what we believe in; of what we love.
