Im getting so I can enjoy playing with Fritz at the wonderful new game it sure throws a scare into you though the first time you hear the whole business start at once just as quick as a flash and every gun pounding to beat the devil and the scream of shrapnel and the rush and swish of the big shells as they go tearing along and then the rattle of the M. G.s and the big boom of the mortars and now and then a rocket go up making the whole scene as bright as day. It gets in your blood and you want to raise h-l in general and then when the artillery stops you tear out of a dugout and start the old M G to tearing off 600 per minute and see how they like the answer you send
