“I thought of To Kill a Mockingbird.

Standing there now, chain-smoking, I felt like I finally understood the ending.” Michael AnthonyCivilianizedMassachusetts AuthorTo Kill A Mocking BirdIraq War DescriptionWar Writing Book:Civilianized: A Young Veteran's Memoir Source: Civilianized: A Young Veteran's Memoir
