Sidney hops off the train into the station in his hometown of Mobile, Alabama. It feels surreal to be back home after so long in the Pacific. He wears his Marine blues and takes off his cap, putting it in between his arm and torso to be polite while inside. He has a sack of belongings over his shoulder and looks around for someone he recognizes.

Though his puppy-dog eyes are somewhat faded, they’re still very much present in his appearance. He’d shaved recently but there’s still a small dusting of stubble on his cheeks, making him look his age. His curly blonde hair is neatly styled in a way that’d make the Marines proud. His nimble, calloused fingers fidget with a letter as he looks around the bustling train station.
