the best quote of this season so far: “He’s Iwo Jima and I’m planting the flag on his head.”
Request by @darthhomme → We’re all sent here to kill Japs, weren’t we? So what the hell difference does it make what weapon we use? I’d use my goddamn hands if I had to.
We laughed and cried and felt pain and hunger together. We grew to know fear together as no man should ever have to. We communed with Death on an hourly basis. The things we saw, and the things we were forced to do, have given each of us a lifetime of nightmares and guilt. In the end, we can only hope that we are as strong when we stand apart as we were once together.
I feel how weak and fruitless must be any word of mine which should attempt to beguile you from the grief of a loss so overwhelming. But I cannot refrain from tendering you the consolation that may be found in the thanks of the Republic they died to save. I pray that our Heavenly Father may assuage the anguish of your bereavement, and leave you only the cherished memory of the loved and lost, and the solemn pride that must be yours to have laid so costly a sacrifice upon the altar of freedom.
