I agree with Zack, Ms. Olsen's story reminds me of Soldiers Home. Here she is, a woman who because of a unchangeable thing like her sexuality, can never return home again. In the story, the main character is never truly a part of society again, he lived a life of fear and tragedy. While Ms. Olsen overcame her struggles with her sexuality in her life, all until the time she went to college, she also lived a life full with misery and pain. Krebs lost his love, lost his family, and lost his life, while Ms. Olsen, whom even though shes lost greatly in life, has shown to us that if you fight hard and laugh a little, life might turn around,
