Maria's Lovers

Him and I were the last two left
out of the original.
And when you were shelled,
how did you feel?
I don't know. Just...
After Norman got hurt...
killed, why...
I was all right
when we were moving up...
or attacking
or anything like that...
but when
we'd get pinned down...
I'd start thinking about him
laying back there.
I believe
that your profession...
is calling it nostalgia.
In other words, homesickness.
Yes, sir.
It was induced when,
shortly before the war...
I received a picture
of my sweetheart.
Yes?
I'm sorry. I can't continue.
That's all right.
Well, when I was in combat,
Mindanao...
Can you speak louder?
I have trouble hearing you.

Yes, sir. During that time...
I got word that my brother...
he was killed at Guadalcanal.
What is your name?
Ivan Bibic, sir.
You feeling OK, Ivan?
Yeah.
What are you thinking
about right now?
Home, sir. Going home.
