   Summary

   "What if Mav never pulled Bradley’s papers, despite how much he wanted to? Years later Bradley gets into an accident on deployment, his life hangs in the balance for a little while. Mav blames himself and spirals into a deep depression that Ice nor the other flyboys can pull him out of. Maybe Carole was right, all Bradshaws were destined to die with a Mitchell by their side."

   Just a thought...
