Hell runneth over

"Bravo Platoon 4, charge!!!!"

Out of the jungle we ran, adrenaline rushing, all ready to fight. Once out in the open we found ourselves knee deep in mud, directly facing a heavy machine gun. tat-tat-tat-tat-tat, one by one my platoon mates fell all around me, stuck in the mud!

"Platoon 4 pull back, retreat!" Damn, we started to turn around. "Never mind, Platoon 4 press on, move ahead, charge!!!" Shucks, turn around again and run!

By the time we made it across, whole platoon down, only 3 persons alive, including myself of course because I was at the back. But we're not done yet. Have to cross another stretch of road. "Okay, on my count, 1, 2, 3, go go go!"

We run across the road to the other side. Just as we step foot "arty arty take cover!!!!!" And there went the rest of the platoon.....

4 days of living hell are finally over. You have no idea what it was like, and probably never want to know haha. I'm so glad to have survived and booked out early so I can go home and surf the net peacefully on a friday night! ;)
