The narrator of this story is the daughter of a colonel in the Army. She and her brother have been raised as army children and are very intrigued by the aspect of war. They spend much of their childhood roleplaying the war and when her brother signs up for service, the author is extremely confused when her father and mother are not overly thrilled. She can not wait to live the life of the war through her brother and his letters.
Although her brother does not convey the war life through letters, she gets more than enough information through pictures that her brother sends for her to develop. Suddenly, the reality of the war is not as wonderful and exciting as she had expected it to be as not even her powerful father the Colonel can guarantee her brother's safety.
Good story. Rather slow moving but definitley can start the "Gagnor Waterfalls" toward the end of the story.
