In a world of tyrrany and dictatorship, I know it is necessary for us to draw our swords on ocassion. We have to if we wish to keep our freedom. But seeing this disfigured young man and knowing how altered his life will be and seeing the look of pain on his parents faces as they welcome back their child who will be mamed for life touches a deep sorrow in my heart. If we are to defend our nation, let us do it to the fullest. But in my heart I pray that young men will never have to go to war.
What 50 years later or so, and this still is one of the most moving and touching scenes I've ever seen. Perhaps the best movie of all time. It's in my top 3 for sure...

"It's just that you Ma's so glad to see you." He wouldn't have believed that if he had seen her face ten seconds beforehand.
