This story left me feeling a little conflicted. When I originally saw the photo early in the prompt selection process, I was surprised and excited to see WWII era German military uniforms and was looking forward to reading THAT story. Unfortunately, a different, Americanized story emerged and, while disappointed, I dove in to read about Buck and Joe. And I liked it…for the most part. Then, at the very end, it seemed like the author got bored and just included a "laundry list of life events" that, for me, totally distracted from Buck and Joe's reunion. *le sigh* ( )
