The night my best friend died.
The Amanastan forces attacked us later on the next day.
The once quiet sky came alive with gunfire and tracer rounds.
The well trained men of Camp Anaconda came alive right away.
The U.S. Army Rangers put sixty- four militants in the ground.
A few hours before seven, the militants again attacked our position.
They come at us very hard so the base settled down for very long fight.
Somehow they found a way to get on the inside of our location.
Twenty more Amanastan militants were killed that night.
The Amanastan Forces broke through the outer parameter wall.
I bombard them with heavy gunfire from my post in the guard tower.
With the fifty cal, I easily shot them and watched them fall.
I just took nine more lives in less than one hour.
Early in the middle of the fight, the general sent a platoon out in the night.
Their orders were to flank the enemy and quickly move in for the kill.
The General said ‘This is our best chance to end this fight.’
Then the NATO platoon suddenly came charging over the hill.
We killed eighty-four Amanastan militants brutally in firefight.
At least, that was the number the major U.S. newspapers said.
However, I received some very unwanted news later on that night
The best friend I had in the U.S. Army Rangers were among the dead.
