Thank a Soldier: Strength of Soldiers in Pains

I remember when I saw the numerous Enemies we had to fight.
Major General seyi(a qualified Paramedic) said to all:
This is what all those rigorous training were mearnt for.
Today, you will either die to save your country and have our children live safe lives, or you will tell the victorious stories of your dead regulars who died to give our families safety in the Nigerian territory.
As if waiting for him to conclude, a bullet went right through his hip,  and he screamed "take Cover!"
I rushed to him, dragging him behind a tree, at the same time, trying to stop the bleeding. Others kept fighting to maintain our defence. Looking at my friend, I felt like throwing up, as I saw the way his hip bone had been grinded by the powerful effect of the enemies A1 automatic riffle.
I told him to hold on, but he told me to let go. By the Severity of the injury and the fact that our relief would be arriving in three days, he knew he wouldn't make it. Dearies, I may not have died then; but sadly,I live to die another day.
Seyi and Sade (major General Seyi's twin children) said together;
" Uncle, we know He is happy knowing that we are safe." Amidst tears they say the Military moto:
Victory Belongs to God alone!
