Explanation:

The poem is about a young child finding a man's skull in a farm that stands on a historical battlefield and his grandfather recounting the courageous tale of the famous victory.

Throughout the poem, indifferently, the carnage that the war brought is narrated all the while calling the fight a famous victory and thus something to be proud of.

The poem is thus ironic and sarcastic, with the person recounting the war not even remembering what it was for, only that it was a great one. Through the poem it seems that it is less important what wars are fought for that the fighting itself which seems to be the goal unto itself.
