We Are the Future in a Brave Lonely Homeward Moment
In a Washington station Kirby and Wade share a tender postwar vow about their future and their child Alan. Kirby says she could marry only a husband who is also a father, while Lydia and Chris prepare for travel and separation. The scene foreshadows a generation awakened by war, facing farewells and new beginnings as soldiers return.
