A young girl and her mother stand hand in hand in front of a monument with many names carved in it.
Young Girl: What are all these words?
Mother: Men's names. Ones who fought in a war.
Young Girl: Like Daddy?
Mother: Yes.
Young Girl: Will daddy get his name on a rock too?
Mother: I hope not.
Young Girl: Why not?
Mother: Because these men died.
Young Girl: Oh...[Pause] Why were the men fighting?
Mother: To make a change. For you. For me.
Young Girl: They didn't know me...
Mother: That's what makes them great, sweetie.
