TK now thinks she must have been drunk when she wrote that.  In the  cold 
harsh light of day, she does not really think that this is such a  defensible 
position.  She certainly would not want to be the wife of a man  who brought home 
such plunder from war.  "Hi honey, look what I brought  home!"  "Ugh, what IS 
this??  A bald woman?  And you want ME to  feed her and take care of her?!  
All she does all day is wail and sniffle,  what on earth kind of thing is this 
to bring home?!  You couldn't find some  jewelry in the ruins, you had to 
bring home this...this...."  "Oh for  crying out loud, what are you making such a 
fuss for?  Rape in wartime is  perfectly moral!"  No, not really such a 
defensible position at all.
