Dismayed parents discuss about their love for their fallen sons, but a particular man brings them out of misery by glorifying youth's determination to serve the country and to live their life to the fullest.

Who is the author of a short story titled War which is about a father accepting the death of his son?

Luigi Pirandello. He was Italian. Not the usual brand of War story- all of the action takes place in a railroad or subway car. I believe the character you mentioned was the conductor ( of the train) and he delivers the punch line that his son has died in action- this stops the anti-war debate between the three strap-hangers who are the main characters. no, it did not take place on the Canadian National!.
