mere words. We didn't have any
where to go.
Finally, there was a loud ex-

right in the face. The next thing
1 knew I was lying face down in
my helmet, blood all over the place
and a medic was administering
morphine. I was too dazed to know

Several hours later, when next I

then at my chin. Shrapnel had
