Kraft was a skinny, harmless kid from Pennsylvania who wanted only to be liked, and was destined to be disappointed in even so humble and degrading an ambition. Instead, of being liked, he was dead, a bleeding cinder on the barbarous pile whom nobody had heard in those last precious moments while the plane with one wing plummeted.

Kraft, a frail and unassuming boy from Pennsylvania, harbored a simple desire to be accepted and liked by others. However, his aspirations were tragically unfulfilled, leading him not to friendship but to a harrowing end. Instead of finding companionship or acceptance, he ultimately faced a grim fate, illustrating the disparity between his innocent wish and the harsh realities of life.

In his final moments, as the plane hurtled downwards with one wing gone, Kraft's existence culminated in a silent tragedy. No one acknowledged his suffering or his pleas, emphasizing the loneliness and despair that marked his life. This poignant moment serves as a stark reminder of the vulnerability of those who seek connection yet find themselves isolated amidst chaos.
