As they revisited what they had seen and done in battle and revealed to each other their journeys back into civilian life, they discovered that the bonds had not been broken by time. A decoration for one became a healing event for all. This book--beginning in brutal war and ending with this momentous, transformative reunion--covers the journey of Bellavia\'s...
