A Letter from the Trenches Dear Mom and Dad, I miss you both so much and I think about you all the time. I hope you both are well. We arrived in Belgium a couple of days ago and I thought I was going to pass out from the smell. Many of the men were sick. To describe the smell would be an impossible task but with the dead bodies rotting in shallow graves and lying out in the open in no mans land, the smell of gunpowder, cigarette smoke, mud, and the gas that lingers for a few days after an attack might give you an idea of how bad it is.

George believed his plans were going to be successful but he learned that seldom are dreams

I did not hear the approaching vehicle. When I did hear the noise of the vehicle I believe I tried to move but I couldn’t manage to move my legs. The next thing I knew was the vehicle ran over my head and before I lost consciousness I thought “I am going to have a flat head.” When I woke up, I was in the hospital and found out from my parents and dr. that I was lucky to be alive. My head was all bandaged up and I had a terrific headache. My mom told me that the mailman ran over my head.
The bus pulled up and we hugged the men goodbye, thankful for the humbling experience they offered us that day. We spent another day working at a site we had already been to. All of us got one day to relax and mingle, but before we knew it, the program was over. Our last morning was spent saying goodbye and exchanging phone numbers and Facebook names. Soon, it was time for Jackson and me to go back to our hotel for a few days before coming back to Washington.
