[The mention of war has him sighing softly. As horrific as the war had been, it had been quick and there had been one common enemy. If Mal's parents died in the war when he was young and the war is still ongoing—a war with multiple enemies—he can't even begin to fathom living like that.]

I understand the strategy behind valuing the people who have a better chance of bringing an end to a war, but does that mean that all other soldiers mean nothing?

Your wars would already be lost without those fifteen soldiers, I'm sure.
