3. Can you think about how a tiny kitten could become a symbol of hope in the middle of a war zone? Marine Sergeant Frank Praytor, entrenched behind sandbags in a grim foxhole, cradles an inconspicuous ball of fur named “Miss Hap.” Her name is no coincidence—she was born into a chaotic world where her mother met a tragic end due to the noise she made, and her sister was inadvertently squashed by a fellow soldier.
But against all odds, Miss Hap survived the turmoil. When Praytor was shipped out, the little survivor’s journey didn’t end there. She found her way back to the US with another soldier, embodying resilience in the most unexpected of places. In the heart of conflict, this orphaned kitten showed that even in the darkest times, hope can emerge from the most unlikely of sources.
