Summary
Neither of them feel sane after the war. Eugene can't stand civilian life and Merriell is losing touch with reality. If post-war peace is an ocean, they’re sinking fast, unable to breathe without taking on water. Eugene thinks he’s found the solution, needing Merriell like a buoy to keep him afloat. But Merriell isn’t so sure, because Eugene is an anchor—grounding him in reality and dragging him down.

Summary
Put simply, dynamic kinetic stability proposes that variation in a system which improves or maintains system longevity will persist, while any variation decreasing stability will be selected against. According to chemical kinetics, more complex molecules are usually more stable. Therefore, variations increasing the molecular complexity of system components will persist, because they also enhance the longevity of the system at large.
Or, how a complex relationship evolves between two unlikely partners: a worn-out gunner, Snafu Shelton, and an optimistic pilot, Eugene Sledge.

Eugene wonders about the universe; about his path in it and whether or not the one that his parents set out for him is the one he truly wants. If he thinks through the problem logically, there’s no question about what he should do. However, love is not ruled by reason and Merriell complicates matters. -
