They are young and their minds are firm and they do put their trust in God continually.® (Alma 57:25-27) Helaman had also stated in his epistle to his commanding general, Moroni, that ®as the remainder of our army were about to give way before the Lamanites, behold those two thousand and sixty were firm and undaunted. Now this was the faith of these of whom I have spoken. ®And now, their preservation was astonishing to our whole army, yea that they would be spared while there was a thousand of our brethren who were slain, and we do justly ascribe it to the miraculous power of God, because of their exceeding faith in that which they had been taught to believe - that there was a just God, and whosoever did not doubt, they should be preserved by His marvelous power. Speaking of this unbelievable occurrence, Helaman states, ®two hundred out of my two thousand and sixty had fainted because of the loss of blood nevertheless, according to the goodness of God and to our great astonishment, and also the joy of the whole army, there was not one soul of them who did perish. This scene depicts the moment when Helaman (shown on his horse) learns from a subordinate officer that all two thousand and sixty of his beloved sons have survived a terrible battle in which everyone of them have ®received many wounds.® This was the second time this had occurred, though many other soldiers in the army had perished, this ®little band® under Helaman's leadership, lost not a single man. (Alma 56:10) They called him ®father®, such was the love and respect they had for him. Their commanding officer, Helaman, called them his ®sons,® ®for they are worthy to be called sons,® he said. They were men of truth and soberness, for they had been taught to keep the commandments of God, and to walk up rightly before God.® (Alma 53:20-21) Their mothers had especially influenced their faith. and true at all times in whatsoever thing they were instructed. Though they had never fought, the scriptures tell us ®they were exceedingly valiant for courage. These two thousand and sixty young men were a ®Great support® to their country's defense.
