The War was a real seminal twenty-year moment for me.  There’s the life I had before it started.  That me died at Alpha Centauri.  There’s the person I became at Alpha Centauri so I could fight.  He died too.  He didn’t belong in a world after Wars End.  And then there’s the new me.  I got a new chance to go to worlds again for the first time.  To see what I’d fought for.  Who I’d fought for.  To get a chance to live in peace and quiet.  That was an eye-opener.
