Out on the field,

It's life or death.

One Wrong step and you're

About my wife,

and kids.

The HORROR they're experiencing.

I realize now how wrong it is to claim another life.

SNAP BACK !

If I don't shoot to kill !

Then I am surely dead.

The WAR, the PAIN, the ANGER

is messing with my HEAD !

although we try our best.

And We Are Slowly Being Defeated...

The enemy returns.

TO FINISH OFF THE REST !

Standing, about face.

We're only adding to the body count.

To obsessed to stop us !
