Beautifully written and still with the first person touch.

”I wasn't the same after Blue. I knew it, the sergeant knew it, shit, the whole bloody company knew it, but I marched, stopped, slept, shot my rifle, dug trenches, filled sand (mud) bags and offered up another target for the bloody Hun to shoot at and that was enough for King and country it seemed.” Everyone's got their own shit and everyone helps! That's the way of the soldier at war.

If you got friends who went to war and survived, don't forget about this. A simple ”buddy check” might save a life. The dying doesn't always end when the war does.

Very well done! Wish my upvote was worth more for a great price like this one.
