I was on patrol I was alone in the middle of the street and see one of the enemies troops. I pin him to the ground and point my gun to his head I look down at the soldier, I recognized him he was a boy from my class. "Chaz !" we are both breathing heavily looking at each other I could tell he recognized me too. I had this feeling I couldn't do it I couldn't shoot him I pulled my gun away from his head I get off him and we both stand up Charles there was nothing spoken between us, but everything that needed to be said has been said Charles looks down at his red armband and rips off his armband and I look down at my blue armband and rip it off.
Later on that day
"Do you know what it's like, watching your friends die in front of you" I yell with tears in my eyes Charles looks at me hard but sad look on his face "Rob, all or them are dead". we both just stood there in silence for a few moments we look into each others eyes that look he gave me it said I understand.
Writers note Chaz is a nickname for Charles.
