It changes nations, and it changes people, both those who fought and those who waited anxiously back home. One soldier among the thousands arriving in Boston on this day is not joining in the celebrations. He is a young man from Holyoke, Massachusetts. He enlisted out of a sense of duty to his nation, little knowing the pain, the hurt he would suffer. His wounds are not those of gunshots or mustard gas or influenza, they are wounds of the heart and the soul, and they are deep. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eDarkest Before Dawn\u003c\/i\u003e, Book 4 of the Trolley Days Series, Massachusetts author Robert T.
