‘Bread Crumbs and Hatchet Marks,’ a new essay, appears in O-Dark-Thirty as Veterans Day is upon us

"Bread Crumbs and Hatchet Marks" is the most recent installment in my ongoing project to memorialize the years of Francis's Army service and afterwards. The essay appears in the current issue of O-Dark-Thirty, the literary journal of the Veterans Writing Project--released just as Veterans Day is upon us.
