Hi again! Don\'t you just love it when &nbsp;it\'s one you\'ve heard before? I do... it gives me a reason to listen again and re-analyze the tale in a new perspective.

I really liked this one. It was simply and even a little predictable, but there was an alluring innocence about it that I enjoyed.

The thing I would really like to point out though, is the production of this one. In most episodes, the&nbsp;ambiance&nbsp;is lit dimly beneath dialogue and mood. Often you\'ll hear doors close, birds chirping, or the range of car sound effects that are common on the RMT shows.

But this one was especially gratifying. The production team paid special attention to the environment our character was put in. The sounds of the harmonica, the water splashing on the boat, dogs barking, the rushing and clopping of hooves, the rolling of the artillery cannons, the celebration with the band and all, and so on...

Along with the rich narrative descriptions of the environment, this was one of the most&nbsp;immersible&nbsp;episodes I\'d heard in a long time.

Although the main character was someone I could somehow relate to, he was played a tad \"over the top.\" But perhaps in the situation he was in (in the story), it was necessary to convey his inner struggle. Such a sad tale.

Along with shows like, IN THE FOG, I can\'t help but feel such deep sorrow for those men and women who served their country only to be left with such horrible personal reminders of the wars and battles they fought. And though this may have been a fictional tale, the&nbsp;possibility&nbsp;that this actually could have&nbsp;occurred&nbsp;is what I found so becoming of the episode.&nbsp;<br>
