I'm also a fan of Kendra and I wish she had been able to be part of the show for a longer stretch. I like her intelligence and courage, I like how completely she has locked herself down in order to deal with her own guilt and fear. I give a lot of credit to the actress, who I felt brought both charisma and restraint to the role. My husband once said he thought it was interesting that Kara expressed so much with just her face and expressions, whereas Kendra is almost impossible to read. They are good contrasts to one another. And Kendra provides a nice reflection about what might happen in the military when you take a good quality like loyalty and attach it to the wrong person (Cain).
