1968

by @unlife

So I brought my heel down on the chink's jaw. I mean, it was already dead, but we have to be sure. That's what Barker wanted. And the bitch says somethin' Congish- Well, squeals it- So I bring my heel down harder. No, I don't regret it. That's the thing. I was being a soldier. We were being soldiers. But now I'm hearing Apologies From my goddamn platoon leader. He's just sorry to be the only convict. It wasn't a "massacre." One of them had a grenade on her. I was just following orders.
