*Howard Weinstein commented: "''The Dominion War stories take place during the DS9 period, but we were allowed to use any living Trek characters, so I wrote a McCoy-Scotty 'Over the Hill Gang' story about two very old friends risking their lives when they should be retired. I tried something new for me: first-person POV, through McCoy's eyes. With the 9/11 terrorist attacks and Iraq war still fresh, I used some of those raw images and emotions in writing about sending kids to fight and die, and how war challenges people to hold onto their humanity, ethics and ideals in the face of implacable enemies. It's probably the best writing I've ever done''". [http://www.startrek.com/article/howard-weinstein-on-pirates-puppies-more]
