Nan Craig's short story Scrapmetal was originally published in issue 1.3 of Arc in 2012. I listened to an audio version on issue 524 of the Escape Pod podcast from March 2016.
Scrapmetal tells the story of a soldier adjusting to life after leaving the army in a world where humans are modified by cybernetic implants to match the needs of their vocation.
