 Child Soldiers: The little girl who walks up to the guard-post, smiling. Pete offers her some gum. He radios over to Guy, telling him how he don't give a damn about the Captain's stories and how "we're not gonna become baby-killers". Death by Irony ensues.

 Abandoned War Child: The central plot of the story is kicked off by Guy meeting Vera, a Serb woman captured, raped, and impregnated during The Bosnian War. She is released as part of a prisoner exchange mere hours before giving birth, and the results of trying to go home again aren't pretty for either her or her daughter.
