The End

My life as a teenager

When I was 14 we all felt that something wasn*t right.

Everywhere the military showed off but we still didnt let us get disturbed in our everyday life.

I just was a norrmal boy living with his parents on a little ranch in Texas close to the little town Eden where we sold our milk and wool.

But then that one day in 1914 something was different. The swallows were flying really deep and our animals were quit. The air was hot and opressively. Me and my older brother were bringing the milk to the shop this day so we where the first of our family that saw what had happened in the town.  The army had built a big tent with a little table where a line of about 18 to 30 year old guys were standing. We even noticed at the first look that the line was for new soldiers. Me and my brother allways had dreamt of being in the army. We were so dumb to think that it would be a great adventure and that we would come home as heroes. When my brother and I looked at each other we saw that we had the same idea. 

Our plan was it to go there, tell them that we are 18 and then go help our troops. but we had not made the plan with our mother and our mother hated the army so we didn*t tell her about anything and waited till the day was come where we had to bring the milk to town again.

So on an Wednesday afternoon we went there with the milk and all our needed things (which were not really much)and signed up as privates. We should be shipped to the coast to be sent to Europe where we were needed.
