Dear Diary,
We are on rest again, but I feel that eventhough we are miles away fromthe line the war is wherever we go, even when we were marching to the trains that will get us to our rest. Miles away from the line I still hear the shells and feel afraid. I received my first pay, so the guys and me decided to have some fun, get drunk and look for tarts. I was forgetting the war. There was a moment that we talked about Brown, I miss him. The next day we took a swim in a stream. I was having a really good time and I felt so released when I took my uniform off, suddenly Cleary saw a dead body in the water, it was a French soldier, that totally spoiled our day. I was so upset because even miles away from the battle camp I still see and feel the war. At this point I feel I could never get out of it. I would always be chased by this nigthmare called war. I feel I'm trapped in it that wherever I see. whenever I go I will always be fighting to escape from this omnious thunder.
