In Afghanistan, "bacha posh" directly translates to "dressed like a boy" for children who are born female. The families may choose to raise their daughters as bacha posh to ensure safety and a better quality of life.

Fort Benning would be a fading dream; Preston, Virginia, a place unknown, his future. He was in between, fumbling with puzzle pieces, making up stories about the real Jamie Sabin. Each of these he set adrift like a paper boat on a shifting sea of daydreams. He did that encased in the drone and shudder of diesel pistons and hissing tires. Jamie Sabin was going home to a place unknown. </span>
