crazymom leavinghome military preagnant protesting sickness soldier vietnam-war

This story takes place in the 1970's, about at the end of the Vietnam War. Wiliam, a soon-to-be soldier for the U.S. is leaving behind everything for battle. His friends, his sickly mother, his three year old daughter, and the pregnant love of his life. This story really isn't about William the soldier, though. It's mostly about everyone he left behind and how they cope with having a loved one thousands of miles away fighting in what seems to be a hopeless war.

Cold Ashes by SilverGalaxySkies

Disclaimer:- This was written by me 4 years ago during my years at college. It's far from perfect, but I hope everyone can see where I have improved. For my latest works, please see Varna. Thanks! The world is long gone. The old ways of kindness and compassion as dead as the corpses that now stalk the Earth. In the depths of this zombie apocalypse 17 year old Ryan has survived through it all where his family hasn't been as lucky. Scavenging all he can find, his world revolves around one basic, cruel fact - that any day could be his last. But then the impossible happens. Suddenly his world changes and all around him feelings and people he never knew existed slice through his heart like an icy razor. He sees things that he only ever heard in fairy tales or even the world before, things that he thought were impossible. Can he stay alive long enough to save his friends from the insanity of Boss? And is it possible that he can learn to care about humanity again? A teen thriller with plenty of twists, turns and drama on every page. Has been officially completed, but I have ideas to expand it. If you want more, tell me so and I will begin the planning ^~^

At War by wisteria_in_bloom

"Revenge by young men is considered victory, but old men who stay at home in times of war, and mothers who have sons to lose know better." -Chief Seattle This is an anti- war epistolary novella written for ONC 2022. Prompts 5 and 74 have been used, with more focus on the latter. . . . In the blissfully quiet moments that sometimes descend around them, when the other side is as weary as they are, a conscripted soldier writes. There is much to write about - fellow soldiers, gunfire and miles and miles trod with sockless feet and tattered boots squelching in mud and dying grass. But more than that, there is the longing for hearth and home, and words for things long left behind. The soldier travels three thousand miles longing for home. The soldier finds it the day before death. . . . This story has been featured in the reading lists of @WattpadMilitaryFiction now! . . . All cover credits go to @YT_BookAwards_Covers, who took out time to make this wonderful cover.

The Stavesons: A CH Story by Phr0gg0L0rd

Aaron Staveson (Aka Ame) at the age of 7 was forcefully drafted amongst other children into a war against monsters. After 2 years of bloodshed and determination, he was able to end the war... or did he? The war was officially over, at the cost of many lives, and for Aaron, his legs. However, monsters are still lurking, and the biggest monster of all is after Aaron. Now it's much more intense for him because he is now a father. He decides to pack up his family of 31 kids (yes he has that many) and head back to the home he was once taken from: United City, home of the Representatives. As he reunites with long lost friends and family it all seems to be a happy ending, but is it truly a happily ever after? Or will the monsters take everything from him once again? And for good. I made this book 5 years ago in a notebook. There has been some heavy editing done to make the book more understandable and how I want things to go! Happy Cringing! BTW there's gonna be extra content in this as well so it's not all suffering ig-

Letters To My Soldier Boy Lover by letspartyxd43

#1 in Poppies #200 in letters in Nov 19 #7 in distance #1 remembrance Jonas never really thought that writing a random address and postal code would have anyone respond to his letters. He thought they would just be discarded or even not be delivered to a house at all. But because he did that he felt love once again. Ava hadn't realized that a letter from a soldier boy would make her fall head over heels for him. She never thought that such simple letters would make her laugh,smile, excited, sad, scared and all different types of emotions you can feel. This story takes place in an imaginary war that I made up in my mind. Everything is fictional in this book. I update every day and just a heads up. LOT of grammar mistakes and could make you cringe. Well in my opinion. You decide wether you like it or not!!!

You're Not Alone by Danny_loves_Linda

Linda Reagan was pretty sure life had finally settled for her. Her husband was back from Iraq, they had a healthy baby boy, and an energetic toddler running around.

So why did he feel defeated, lonely, inadequate? Why was there constantly a black cloud over his head... if he was completely fine? **TRIGGER WARNING: MATURE NIGHTMARE MATERIAL**

End of Days by katcarter571

"Trust you? Are you kidding? I think it should be pretty evident to you that we don't trust you." "Henry, I would like to speak to you alone." Cyrus says, now ignoring Nolan. My father shakes his head slowly, "if you want to talk say it here. I'm not going anywhere alone with you. Not until we have some answers." Cyrus doesn't budge, clearly not willing to talk infront of us all. "Alright, everyone pack your bags we are leaving in the morning, and we are taking that car. If you want to try and stop us, just remember you're the ones that trained us," He finishes, dramatically flicking the safety off his gun and holding it at his side. ------- In a world following its fourth world war, Mazlynn, her family, and a few neighbors survive the bombings against all odds.
