Every war's different!
Until it's the same.
Lois!
Talk some sense into him, will you?
LOIS: Can't do that, Dad.
I think he's right to join up.
Well, at least he's getting out

Yeah, to get shot or blown up,

while you just go, like that.
I'm fighting for my country.

He ran away when things became troublesome.
Oh, for God's sake, can't you show
some generosity to his memory, at least?
When all is said and done, the man is dead.
Death is just another kind of running away in the end.
