The night before the battle Jim wrote a letter home. He didn’t write much just that everything was going to be alright. Then Jim and some soldiers started marching efficiently to the trenches.The were ready for battle but travelled at night so the Germans didn’t see them coming. They came with high spirits hoping for victory and a warm welcome at home. Where was home? 5:30 AM Jim sat in the trenches rifle held tight waiting for the signal. 10 minutes later the battlefield was silent. Nothing ushered a sound not even a mouse. With 1 hour and 28 minutes left to go Jim started getting ready. Suddenly guns started blazing from the enemy raining anywhere and Jim hugged his rifle tighter like a teddy bear. Jim’s team got the ladders ready. 3 minutes, 2, 1. They ran out weapons blazing everywhere. Jim was on the battlefield and jumped for cover by a patch of poppys when he got shot and he met Kyle and they became friends.
