A New Beginning
So this is what its like to be leaving my home country. Such a wonderful place it was until 1912 when they decided to start political meanings of starting a war. My name is David Behrenhauser a person who came from Germany to hopefully find peace in America and start a new life the "land of opportunity" so i may seek my fortune. Arriving at Ellise Island it looked like a new building and us immigrants were lining up to get our passes to continue into the United States. -
Meat
It's been about a month and I realized that starting fresh was a little dirtier then expected. after using my money I bought a small apartment and got a job at a meat making factory, and it is not as bad in the beginning but soon I realized with the help of my new friend William Cadwell. He tells me that what they put in the food that we eat is extremely disgusting and completely inevitable. They use this device a hopper to turn anything into a mixed meat. However they also put other things... -
A Disgusting Encounter
Another month working at this putrid industry. I finally learned the truth of how much workers want to keep their jobs. This one worker hot his hand mangled in a hopper, instead of going to get help the boss way coming by so he smashed his hand into a pile of meat! I know i need to get out of here so that's when me and William ended up in a bar. -
Bar Fight
"It 's almost time." I told William and he shook his head and had his fist tightened and his gun ready. I was the same prepared so when I gave the signal we began.(We got the guns from a gun store when sales rose.) When i gave him the signal he started to walk towards some drunken man and he called him some names. Soon the man got up and punched him and I (on timing) punched him back while William was recovering. soon other guys were getting up and calling each other names. -
aftermath
When the fight was over and the police broke up they said that we were set off with a warning. As we left my friend and I decided to leave each other as he commited another crime and left the country to another prison. I however had a diffrent plan to join the american army and help serve the country. -
private
Finally I joined the army thanks to some close calls. With a fake ID and a new birth certificate I am now in a tank battalion #33. All of us are learning the basics because we do not have alot of time before we are called in. We learned all about the gears and cannons but what really suprised us was the amount of cooperation we needed. I can not believe the war is in a month or so. -
The beginning
We have trained for a month but I have as much experience as a deiver with 10 years of training. But whats more fantastic is that our batallion was called into the field. I am very excited but im also very nervous because not only do I have to watch my back but i also have to watch my squad. we are close to a checkpoint of the camp we are selected to only 2 days from the feild "i'm ready" i said.
