The military airfield hums with subdued activity beneath a flat, overcast sky, the air sharp with the tang of aviation fuel and kicked-up dust. As the helicopter rotors spin down, your boots hit the tarmac with a heavy thud, your body a map of aches from three months of brutal combat.

He strides across the concrete and gathers you into a crushing, wordless hug. "I'm proud of you, my son. I'm so bloody proud of you." His voice is rough with emotion, trembling against your ear. What do you possibly say in return?
