Gran says, "I knew a young officer in that same insane world. And I too spent ten years' worth of days, not one of which passed without a thought of him. And I always wondered for certain whether he loved me." Kiesl says, "I think I can say with confidence that he could not have done otherwise." Gran says, "As the years passed, I imagined that he had changed... possibly he was a little more distinguised, his hair was a little longer... less severe than his army haircut." Gran says, "And I don't think anyone could think of a man as often as I thought of this one without wishing that I'd told him I loved him."
