Blogs

Isn't it funny that there are so many blogs out there and each one is different which is ok as it gives the ordinary person something to look forward to whenever they want to. The blog either concentrates on one specific topic normally like what people like to read about or watch because some people are smarter than me and use a video blog which I can't firstly because I don't know how and secondly because I don't want to be in the picture, that's not saying that I'm ugly it's just because I just want to write and not having to worry how I look for the camera. Some bloggers have found that their readers or watchers like the specific topic that the blogger has chosen so because of that their followers increase and they make more money which I'm not interested in, why want to make money out of something you enjoy doing, why can't you just do it and enjoy it with out having to satisfy the needs of their followers. For me I write what I want to and about what ever comes to mind, in some way like a diary of how I feel about something on that perticular day perhaps I shouldn't perhaps I should write about cooking, sports, politics or religion, why should I have to when I can't write about those things every day, always about the same subject, for me I would find it boring and I wouldn't be doing what I really enjoy and that's writing. Like today I'm writing about something that just came to me as always out of the blue so I write about what's in my head which is all sorts of things that interest me, I've been in the military a large portion of my life of which I want to forget and move on, do you see me writing about that everyday, no, because I don't have to and don't want to, I've been to places all over the world but do I write about them, no, I've seen things all over but do I write about them, no, I just write what is in my head at this time of the morning every day whether it is interesting to my followers of which I don't have many which isn't essential because I have enough money to live on and don't need out of necessity to make more, so you see blogging is something I enjoy and will do so as long as I can, it's a shame that I can't put at the end of my blog little signs for like, follow or share and then I would know how many people are following me, liking what I write about, wheater they have any comments or even if their sharing my blog everyday but of course I don't know how to do that yet, yes one day, I say yes because I will find out how from someone who knows so until then I always finish by saying that if you enjoyed today's blog then like, follow and share. Thank you.

Ninth installment

The remains of the unit that were in this position left and we followed them, we went around the outskirts of the village and back into the center. The rest of PIV or what was left of it were already there, we found out that Colin just after he had reached the main hq in the center of the village. We had to go back to the end of the street to see what was happening but as soon as we arrived we came under heavy fire as the enemy had pinpointed this house as our new front line, there was no way that we could reach Eric without getting everyone who attempted a rescue killed and because of the amount of enemy fire we had to fall back, on the way Alan started going berserk saying that he had to go back to fight, he was shooting everywhere so George calmed him down and asked him to take care of the elderly and that seemed to work. By now the village command had decided it was time to leave but first we had to wait for the mortar unit to reach safety. We could not get anywhere near under cons...

Third installment

Day in, day out, it was the same routine, sleep, guard, fire off a few rounds in the general direction of the enemy, there was not much else to do, the main thing was to stay alive by keeping inside every time mortars or artillery came flying in to the village. The only time that there was a lot of activitie was when we were buzzed by planes, everybody would rush outside, Ernie would jump on the transporter and fire the machine gun, I used to run to the machine gun that was mounted on a tripod at the end of the street and also fire at the plane, everybody else would be outside firing their ak47s, there was not much chance of hitting it or bringing it down but it took only one lucky shot and that would give everyone hope. After the plane had gone out of sight that the transporter was Ernies because he had shot at the enemy leaving the damaged transporter with a sniper rifle, so Geordi the commander in charge of the defense of Osijek had given it to Ernie, I also found out that he worked...

Seventh installment, sorry it's a bit late but its hard to write what I wrote and remember.

The next day it was awfully quiet, the calm before the storm perhaps, nothing much for breakfast so we decided to try and lay the land line. So off we went house to house laying the wire behind us and then the mortars started again so we hit the ground, lying down was the safest if caught outside, there were pieces of shrapnel hitting the wall near to us and it was not a very safe place to be so we decided to make a run for it, that was the quickest I had ran in a long time, it is amazing how fast your legs move when you're life is at risk, "that was a nice little bit of exercise" Eric said laughing, "yes but it would have been better if we weren't dodging pieces of metal" I replied also laughing.  Everyone was there apart from those on guard duty and during the night it had changed from two to three, so I sat down on the bar stool and Eric went behind the counter looking for something to eat and all of a sudden bang and I fell off the stool, they all came t...
