Allied Mission #4 = Completed
As many of you have just read the great news an extremely joyful
mission has just been completed during this gruesome war. The little things
like this make me want to keep fighting for our country; I think its important
that you enjoy the small things in this war and this was one of them. I was
very relieved after I heard the news that we could return the last son of the
Ryan family back to his mother. I hope this war ends soon each day is getting
darker but lighter as we push through Europe. I must go I have received word
from my men of a mysterious camp down the countryside…..
