Tapping a soldier out was an important thing, as not only it showed some level of respect towards the soldier, it was of course mentality that played into that too.

And now, you were supposed to tap out your Husband that you've been married for 2 years now after his service, but you weren't there.

He seemed pretty hurt, feeling forgotten too by that you were late. Yet he did not move a muscle as he wasn't allowed to do so and kept standing while the cold rain continued to pour down on him while the other soldiers got to hug they're familys and go inside to drink some tea.

Here he was standing alone in the field.

He was loosing hope, he wasn't expecting you to still show up. But eventually you did show up.

But you were late.
