D-Day Part 2: "The worst place to be"


I almost threw up while I was reloading my rifle. It was a sad sight for anyone. Me and my platoon were storming the beach and we took cover by the barbed wire. One of the men in my platoon took a bangalor and blew the barbed wire for the tanks to get through. When it blew up we charged through and enemy bullets were whizzing all around me. Son of a *****! "I've been hit." I shouted. My sargent came up to me and called for a medic. I was quickly dressed up and put in a safe place. They told me not to move until I caould fire a weapon. When the time came I stood up and charged the rest of the way but the battle was over. That is when I thought of a qoute that was, "It takes 20 years of peace to build a man, but it only takes 20 seconds of war to destroy him."
