"Alright, lads you ready?" Asked Sargent Mike as everyone nodded except harry who was rushing over to the ladder near the sacks climbing up them "Psst Idiot what do you think you're doing?" asked Darren giving Harry a dirty look "You're going to get shot fool!" he added as Harry just laughed and laughed as if Darren had just told him the best joke ever annoyed Darren just walked back to his position. "On the count of three 1, 2, 3 wait five seconds then up and over the boys that are going!" Instructed Sargent Mike but Harry ignored him and didn't wait five seconds and just rushed up and over the trench as he was the only one the Germans could see they buried him into the ground in a matter of a few shots. Darren waited the five seconds then looked out "Sir Harry is dead." Reported Darren as the Sargent sadly nodded and signaled to Darren to drop the bomb over at the German front and he did just that Darren when up and over covered by the other boys and threw the bomb rushing back down to the trench as he survived. "Pff- too easy Harry was always a fool ha." laughed Darren pleased with himself as everyone else took time to remember Harry's death.
