A letter of a child to his father, Captain of the Scout Rangers Armed Forces of the Philippines. His father was killed when he decided to rescue a wounded comrade in the Marawi Siege.
War is a situation difficult for children to understand. Many children as young as four to five years old have written heartbreaking letters as their fathers and brothers go to war. These letters narrate their feelings, fears, hopes and dreams.
