As we are in the middle of the sea and all we can see is the dim gloomy sky as it is full of thick clouds as thick as tar, we can’t actually see what is in front of us as the mist is spreading in the place, the time is passing very slowly as we’re all waiting for our fate which seems to be indefinite like we’re waiting for the exam results which make us feel frustrated. Most of us are religious which made everyone be patient, believe in destiny and stand up like a brave man.
There’s instant chaos and I can feel the proximity of the land, I can also hear the strong waves crashing down against the solid hedgehogs like someone is pushing it hard, the black colour of the hedgehogs indicates that the danger is about to come. The strange calmness of the sea gave the connotations of panic and cunning of the enemies.
As I looked at someone on the boat can see the braveness coming out from his eyes, I said “doesn’t this guy know that he is going to his death ?” but I feel sorry for him as he might get killed, he is unaware of what is coming upon him, he has a calm look at his face as he is putting a brave front on for the sake of the other soldiers he is in charge of, the other soldiers look at him as if they need assurance as he is in the position of authority.
Suddenly as we approach the beach we hear a sound near surroundings, and a look of determination comes across everyone on the boot’s face as they are crossing their hearts more and more as terror is spreading in between every one’s mind. As the boat door opens and immediately the German machine guns start firing very fast, straight away, we are put in the position of the enemy. As the foggy air creates de saturated colour shows the dominance of the enemies as they don’t see clearly so we recognise that their numbers are massive as they surrounded the beach from all sides and well prepared, therefore the gunshots is coming from everywhere , enemies are unmerciful and made us get shocked , as the soldiers are shot down in their masses, they get shot into pieces by the German machines, after I can that one after another is getting ripped apart by the machine guns, everyone is feeling that he is going to be next. Someone’s leg is blown off right in front of my eyes, and the blood and guts are hanging out of the soldiers bodies.
The sound is muffled and we can hear the sound as it changes between gunshots and shouts of pain to water bullets everywhere as we bob in and out of the water. Everyone around me is getting killed and blood spurts out into the water.
The taste of death is in my tongue waiting for me to swallow, and my heart is pumping insanely the blood through my veins, which made my skin as red as blood.
Guns being fired nearby, then I am looking at our group leader who just looks around as if he can’t believe what’s happening , the sound goes into slow motion , then he picks up his helmet which is full of red water and he puts it on and water is running down his face and I can see the sight tint of redness that the water has now given to his face, he then snaps into action and starts shouting commands to soldiers, I was pleading to god to save our spirits and keep us safe in his clemency because enemies were so violent and angry and this can be shown by their fierce gunshots.
I felt as weak as I can see all my friends are lying on the floor and their blood is swimming from their bodies. I really feel ambiguous as all of them are getting killed in front of my eyes feel that god is taking their spirits and sending it to heaven ,the majority of the remaining men run up the beach and try to survive and shouting in agony
