I just happened upon this piece, and it is very poignant. Very well-written. I kinda wish there was more to read. It tells such a story in so little words. I agree with your other reviewer, scottie's world - you can really envision the scene of a wizened officer thinking this to himself as he watches his soldiers in the field. Makes me want to watch Saving Private Ryan. Very well-written.

Wow! Assassain, this was over-the-top great.

As I read the piece, I could hear, off in the distance,the choppers flying by overhead; the screams of men on the battlefield calling out,being laid open by stray bullets,dying where they fall; the bombs and gunfire running rampent as the Sergeant pulls his rookie Lieutenant aside, both held up in a hole somewhere admist the battle,saying your words: "Save your scars, soldier. You will need them; believe me, you will need them."

The grief and emotional trama a soldier packs around inside his head must be great. Nice job relaying it here, Assassian.

Wow. That's so true, sadly. I got captured in it, like I was picturing these memories, traumatizing this war vetran. You've got some serious talent.
