Along the way, fragments of Marvyn's story emergean act of sacrifice, a medic's testimony, and a note scribbled in pain.
When a discharge order arrives near Saint-Laurent-de-Cuves, it's not just Melvin's body that returns home, but the weight of everything he's carried: his father's dog tags, a letter folded in blood, and the ashes of a boyhood lost in the mud of France.
