The sound of gunshots ranged through the air piercing the ground while a foot soldier sat in a trench with a note in his hand that read.
"To my love and my child that I miss dearly this is the last push then the enemy will have to retreat so I will return home. Love, Samuel."
He put the note in his pocket and left the trench.
Two men walked up the sidewalk with a letter and a flag in hand the next day.
