Synopsis | - adaptation of a story by Alfred Bester
- reprinted from Abyss, 1970
- General Hamilton Arkay has a dream: intelligent robot soldiers to fight all wars, so that no human soldier will ever again have to die. But Arkay develops a deep emotional attachment to his prototype soldier, FM-1, and when the Army decides the robot project is too expensive, Arkay's surrogate son-nicknamed 'War Toy' by his scornful comrades-is relegated to serving as his assistant in a desk job. When an invading alien army devastates Sydney, Australia, however, Arkay and FM-1 are pressed into service, and with the General dead at the hands of the invaders, 'War Toy' is instrumental in their defeat. An ungrateful Government throws FM-1 out of the Army, and after years of menial jobs in a life now without meaning, thr robot finally commits suicide in a veterans hospital. Then, the aliens return...
