"Here we go." "Thanks." "I appreciate you coming here in person, Colonel. Aiden and I were only cousins, but since he didn't have any brothers or sisters, we became very close." "I want you to understand, as far as I'm concerned, he's still alive. Until I see evidence to the contrary, I intend to keep looking for him." "But you can't give me any details. You can't tell me where he was stationed or how he went missing or what the chances are that I'll ever see him again." "I'm sorry." "This is exactly why I didn't want you to speak With Aiden's grandparents. They can't take this kind of thing right now. I'm starting to think that maybe I should just tell them that he's not coming home. At least then they would have some closure." "We're not there yet." "You know, Aiden mentioned you in that taped message he sent. He said you were a good man. That he trusted you with his life. You tell me, Colonel. Was that trust misplaced?"
