About this listen
A long-kept secret is revealed long after the battlefield death of a beloved and courageous West Point army officer in the Vietnam War. His young widow, in an act of love, had climbed up to the treacherous north face of the Eiger in the Swiss Alps with his ashes. In the casket in which his body had returned from war, she placed beloved memorabilia of their marriage and all, except one, of the hundreds of letters he had written to her.
She discovers years later that those of the infantry company under his command who had survived the war—his comrades devoted to keeping his memory alive—would bring the ultimate healing into her life. At a reunion with these men, forty-two years after the death, she shares what she had buried. They beg her to dig up the letters for an important reason. But, will she dig them up?
When she finally does, there is a shocking surprise.
A compelling true story with a surprising revelation for those who seek to understand the sources of resilience and emotional transformation following heartbreaking loss, demonstrating the tenacious will of the human spirit to heal.
