“They haven’t been changed by the war,”

Issa Blondeau in Day of the Kamikaze

“I think the most important thing is that they [the veterans] were able to tell their stories without pointing fingers at anybody. Because, sometimes, when we add things to the telling of our stories, we add our point of view, thus, making the story different then what it might have been in the beginning. That’s very essential to the knowledge and the passing on of adventures. I don’t know if I can call them so, but I…just that they didn’t point any fingers. They haven’t been changed by the war, they haven’t turned into monsters, and that’s a good thing.”
