These lads have just completed their training and are about to head to fight in France

The training was long and challenging but it was finally time for me and my fellow soldiers to go off to war. I was excited and also nervous, I tried to tell myself I would be fine and that I would be back before I knew it. It was then that I fully understood what I was in for.

These men are fighting at the front.

What The Task Is About

These lads are signing up to join the army to go to war

I was in a cold, damp disgusting trench, this was not my idea of an adventure. Bullets flew over head whistling through the sky. Screams echoed through the trench, I shuddered at the thought of men being pierced by flying lead bullets. I wonder how long this gruesome scene will last, if only I had known it was going to be this bad.

This task was to write about the emotions the soldiers in the pictures were feeling.

The 10 minutes I was standing in line felt like a lifetime. I was waiting to sign up for the biggest adventure of my life, I felt like it was my duty to join the army and fight for my country. Not only would I be a hero I would get to travel the world see new things and meet new people.
