I
am young. I am full of hope and expire to become a great person. I am in
school with young man just like me, in military school. The world is changing
around us, war is breaking out and our country is in need for soldiers.
Our teacher advocates that we take action and step up for our nation and fight.
I think will be a great place. A time for travel, a time for living a live that
goes beyond my hometown. Then after hard training and getting into the routine
war isn't what I thought it was. The food is bad, if we get any at all. The worst
part of my experience of warfare is the thought that never leave your
mind. In training camp or other know has boot camp they teach you that your
fighting people that aren't worth living, and that they're better of die then
alive. I went through some intense hand-to-hand combat and stabbed a French
solider. That French solider was a husband and a father, his wife and or his
children will ever see him again. I have to live with that for the rest of my
life. I wake up in the middle of the night screaming because of the war. War is
old men sending young men to die.
