- "My mind was enhanced to the point that I could remember any military tactic and apply it to any situation. A side effect of this meant that I developed a didactic memory. My life since then has been a series of indelible moments, etched into my brain. I've been around for many years. I've made a lot of mistakes that I'm forced to remember. I've seen a lot of boys go to war, and not all of them have returned. So many have left without a chance for me to say goodbye that you'd think it would be impossible to keep track of. I've never forgotten the name of a single one of them, because I can't. And I consider that a privilege."
