In the war, to survive, you had to be responsible every minute of every day, unhesitatingly responsible for yourself, for your every action. You had to be responsible for your buddies, too, because survival wasn’t something that could be achieved alone. That’s maybe the one positive thing about fighting in a war – it clarifies your thinking and makes you realize that a sense of responsibility is what separates good men from the damned.
