Yes. He lived through the woods from us. My mom found out we were meeting in the middle, just playing in the woods like normal 12 year olds. Moms was concerned that I would get in trouble with him, just like our older brothers did before. We never hung out after that. Dude's dad was an abuser. I saw him the summer he graduated, I could tell he was emotionally burned out. He told me he was gonna do something with himself. The next week he joined the Marines. I saw him 6 months later while he was on leave and I could tell he was better for leaving. He was KIA a few months later in Iraq. There's a memorial for him about 100 yards away where he told me he was going to do something with himself. I still wonder what might've been different for him if he'd had a friends house to go to within walking distance when we were 12.
