They had seen things no human eyes had looked on before, and they had not turned their gaze away. They were in their own view a formidable group of men. No inferno would now melt them, no storm destroy, because they had seen the worst and they had survived.

In the novel "Birdsong" by Sebastian Faulks, a group of men experiences harrowing events that fundamentally alter their perspective on life. They have witnessed unimaginable horrors that set them apart from others, imparting a sense of resilience and strength. Their experiences forge a bond among them, making them feel formidable and unyielding.

Having faced the worst that fate can deliver, they believe no external force, whether it be fire or tempest, could break their spirit. Their survival amid suffering shapes their identity, and they stand unflinchingly, refusing to look away from the realities they've encountered. This shared experience becomes the essence of their courage and brotherhood.
