CHARACTERS
JOY PRIEST: woman; mid-late 40's; strong Texas accent; warm and emotional, yet tired and worn out from dealing with her daughter's death. She is on the verge of giving up trying to find answers. Her emotions fluctuate wildly, and she is entertaining and funny one moment, self-possessed and articulate the next, sad and withdrawn at other times.
DANIELLE PRIEST (Dani): woman; twenty-one years old; Tina's twin sister; tough exterior; Texas accent; very angry about the military's handling of Tina's alleged rape and subsequent death; very organized and businesslike in her presentation of the facts, in contrast with Joy's emotionality. More detached than her mother in the retelling of Tina's story and slightly closed off to the audience.
SHIRLEY: woman; Black; late 40's; veteran, Army.
MARIANNE: woman; late 20's; veteran, Marines.
PANAYIOTA: woman; mid 20's; veteran, Coast Guard.
KC: woman; mid-late 30's; veteran, Army.
AMANDO: man; Filipino; late 30's or early 40's; veteran, Marines.
