Though Walt Whitman himself never participated in combat, he was a nurse in Washington D.C. during the Civil War. There, he treated many soldiers who had been wounded in combat. The soldiers shared their stories with him, and he used their stories in his poetry. In "The Artilleryman's Vision," he writes of the soldiers who have survived war and come home. Whitman recognizes that war is something one can never completely forget.
