There
were times during the next several days that were lost to me, and
are lost to me still. Days passed when my senses were dulled
by the danger and the killing, days destroyed by the exhaustion of
my searches of the dour landscape, and I felt almost anaesthetized
by the constant jeopardy of my life on that Rock, and our
unrelenting destruction of that morass of Japanese humanity. Some
experiences have been expunged from my conscious mind as though they
had never been, though my nightmares and unexplained tears assure me
that they did.
