Veteran Friendships across Lifetimes: Brothers and Sisters in Arms
seeks to add to the larger conversation about the “band of
brothers” phenomenon by focusing on stories of survival after
service members return home. Based on five years of research,
including in-depth interviews with fifty servicemen and women, this
book explores the interrelationship between camaraderie and
contentment. Ward specifically looks at how military friendships
translate from the battlefield into civilian life and how these
friendships assist soldiers in gaining peace with the past, happiness
in the present, and hope for the future. This text uses the themes of
strength, kinship, and resilience to discuss the bonds and friendships
that are created and maintained despite the savagery of the wartime
experience.
