Time and Time Again

by H. Beam Piper
At 43 years old, Allan Hartley is caught in a flash-bomb at the Battle of Buffalo, only to wake up in his own 13-year-old body on the day before Hiroshima.

Piper’s first short story impacted me because I fantasize about the same thing (perhaps we all do). What would you do? Who would you tell? What would you try to change? What would you fear changing?

Here; if you can remember the next thirty years, suppose you tell me when the War’s going to end. This one, I mean.
