Just promise you'll come back in one piece, Connor - and that includes all the non-physical and non-noodly appendages.
Promise it.
And I mean it, really, I've seen how emotional scars can become a worse companion for the rest of your life than a prosthetic leg and neither of those is a destiny one would wish upon anyone.
May the Lady of Fortune bless you with her good charms and the Almighty God keep you sane in whatever trials you will have to face out there.
There will always be a place here waiting for your return.
The things you are about to see, the things you are about to hear, the things you are about to know... have somebody you are ready to talk to when you return. In war there are always 2 battles. The battles with guns and the battles with demons.

And any other veteran here, we know what we gotta do. Leave no man behind, battle buddies exist in the trench and at home.
Connor, to you and your friends, good hunting and return home.
I hope that either all of us or none of us are judged by the actions of our weakest moments. But rather, by the strength we show when, and if, we're ever given a second chance.
