                Wonderful!  My Great-Grandfather from Tennessee fought in the Civil War, was wounded and nearly died.  He was brought home on a wagon loaded with dying men.  It was a long time before he could even get out to go to church.  If he had died, I would never have been born.

                You do an excellent job capturing the feelings of the soldier.

                thank you UKUSA for your visit and comments, yes peace to your country as well, if our nation would just return to God , He would save us, our government has thrown Him out of everything and then they wonder why everything is falling apart, God have mercy on us all.

                Beautiful Writing... Our soldiers still kneeling for rest when will it come for their ultimate sacrifice?
