Pitch Black

Pitch Black
It was 2:30am.  It was pitch black,  I was crammed on the back of the landing boats outside of Z beach waiting for our turn to land.
I was holding my gun like it was my life. I was paralyzed with fear.
Suddenly out of the dark a massive blinding flash lit up the whole sky.
The Turkish have spotted us. I was shocked. Immediately the Turkish began  shooting. 

I ducked down. The killing bullets flew over my head.
There were soldiers dying all around me brains were exploding. It was a bloodbath of death. All my nightmares had come true.      We were commanded to leave the boat.  I could smell fear all through the rowing boat

Here we go again into the pitch black……
