“Why did these men fight? The answer is simple. We were ordinary people molded into Marines. The same can be said of those who served in the army. We all had the proper upbringings of common folk, when you have a task to do, you work hard, give it your best and get the job done. We came from different backgrounds; however, we became a team, moving and fighting as if we had known each other all of our lives. All of us have bonded for life and still keep in touch by phone, letters, and visits. If anyone of the second squad needs help you can be sure the rest of the squad would be there. All of those I have kept in touch with have been successful in the life endeavors they chose. "Not one of them is bitter about giving up two years of their life to 'Serve Their Country'" -George E. Krug”

“What is going to happen to the Aurorans?" "They are prisoners of war," Albion said. "I should imagine they will be set to work at the base of the Spire." Grimm tightened his jaw. "No, sir." "No?" "No, sir," Grimm said. "I've seen that place. You might as well tie a noose around their necks and stand them on blocks of ice, if you want them to die a slow death. It will be cleaner." "I'm not sure why this concerns you, Captain," Albion said. "Because they surrendered to me," Grimm said. "They gave me their parole, sir. They could have fought on with no real chance of victory, and it would have been bloody. But that surrender saved blood and lives of Albions and Aurorans alike. I will not see Captain Castillo repaid with such churlish treatment.”

“— А что, хлопцы, дело табак? — сказал дед. — Киев сдают. Мы возмутились: — Киев — второй Царицын. Ого, дед, еще знаешь, какой бой будет! — Какой там бой, — махнул дед рукой. — Вы посмотрите: куда им воевать? Уставшие, измордованные лошаденки тянули военные фуры, орудия, разваливающиеся телеги. Красноармейцы были оборванные, заросшие, израненные. Некоторые, видно, до крови разбив ноги, шли босиком, перекинув ботинки через плечо. А у других вовсе не было ни сапог, ни ботинок. Шли без всякого строя, как стадо, сгибаясь под тяжестью мешков, скаток, оружия и отнюдь не воинственно звякая мятыми котелками. — О несчастные расейские солдаты, — пробормотал дед, снимая шапку [101—2].”
