📜-Hometown Heroes

[Exerpt from Letter from Earnest to William]

...The only thing he ever talks about is that 'girl back home' of his, but how in the Lord's name does he know that she isn't married off to some other soldier. I understand that he's liked the doll since we were kids, but he's been off to war for a year. I don't understand how he isn't changed like the rest of us.
