When her fiance makes a decision that threatens to tear her whole world a part, Allison seeks comfort from stories and memories of her great-grandparents who shared a similar fate. Heartbreaking and emotional, this short story shows the dark-side of war and the true reason why one should "never forget" the ones that make life worth fighting for.
