    Brian Doyle allows us to see beauty on a day of unimaginable horror. Red flames and black smoke twisting and escaping toward the clear beautiful blue sky. Burning paperwork, shattered glass, and mangled metal debris rain down on the shocked pedestrians below. The victims hold on to one another in comfort from the blast. Praying and calling loved ones.

How can they have such thoughts they ask since their former innocence no longer exists and now these words have no meaning if they ever did. The psychological condition of the men preparing for the next battle is made the more real when visiting their wounded comrade. Honor and glory have no meaning in this total madness.
