Author's Notes
Is it a meet "cute" if they first cross paths in a graveyard? Maybe not, but it's memorable.
The opening scene of this story came to me all at once after hearing Ed Sheeran's "The A Team." I enjoyed writing this novella so much, including the research, and am grateful to servicemember friends who helped me get the details right. Anything that's not right is my own doing.
But Lord Spellcheck, seriously, the Army spells it "duffel" and that's how I'm spelling it. They know more about duffels than either of us.
