So you think about Brendan, you think about all these soldiers having an experience like that, a bond like that, in a small group, where they loved 20 other people in some ways more than they loved themselves, you think about how good that would feel, imagine it, and they are blessed with that experience for a year, and then they come home, and they are just back in society like the rest of us are, not knowing who they can count on, not knowing who loves them, who they can love, not knowing exactly what anyone they know would do for them if it came down to it.
Onda pomislite o Brendanu, pomislite na sve te vojnike koji imaju iskustvo nalik tome,  vezu poput te, u maloj grupi, gdje su voljeli 20 drugih ljudi na neki način više nego što su voljeli sebe, pomislite o tome kako  bi to bio dobar osjećaj, zamislite, a oni su blagoslovljeni  tim iskustvom na godinu dana, potom dođu doma, i samo su natrag u društvu kao što smo i mi ostali, gdje ne znaju na koga mogu računati, gdje ne znaju tko ih voli,  koga oni mogu voljeti, gdje ne znaju točno što bi  bilo tko koga poznaju učinio za njih kada bi se svelo na to.
