WE BEGIN WITH THE YOUNG
“What’s this, Opa?” asked Gretchen. “Is it a storybook? I like the pretty gold bird on it.”
Herrick gently took the blue, leather-bound volume from his granddaughter.
“This was given to me a very long time ago.”
“Once upon a time?”
Gathering Gretchen onto his lap, Herrick closed his eyes and remembered the day the youth leader issued him a fresh uniform and the virulent tome. So proud he’d been to serve his country. So fervent.
“Will you read it to me, Opa?”
Herrick fished a box of matches from his pocket.
“Nein, Liebling. I ‘ve a better plan for it.”
