I like the way you tell this story through prose. And a top story this is. My guess is that there are many Jacks around from the 2nd World War and beyond. We just never know because many keep their pain to themselves.
I can't say more than that other than many do not understand their pain unless they have lived it too, but there, my guess is Jack would not want that for anyone.
War is a sad indictment of man. Something I myself wish would never happen in the modern world. There has been enough blood shed now. I wish we could all live in peace.
Have a great new year.

I think Kipling would have nodded upon reading
this stirring yet poignant reminder of the real
cost of war...a cost that continues to be paid
long after the event itself.
