I've already reached the highest point in my life. Nothing is going to beat out what I experienced during the war. The things I did, and the things I was allowed to do while we were out there... Can you really see me living a normal life? Taking some kind of peacetime desk job, settling down with a wife and kids? Can you even see me living to be thirty? Because I can't.

I'm here because it doesn't matter if I die. That's all.
