The context is the anti-German sentiment in Britain during World War I.[1][2] Kipling was known for never portraying Germans in a positive light, and had been the first to use the word "Hun" as a slur for Germans.[3] The poem was written following the death of his son in that war.

I read a few of Kipling's works way back, I was maybe 15 or 16. I'll have to revisit them this winter I remember Kipling struck me as pretty based , but I was just a dipshit "teen".
