Battle Fire #6

A soldier writing to his son recounts his experiences during a year in France, describing how he survived enemy combat through marksmanship and tactical skill. When an entire enemy patrol approaches his position under cover of darkness, he waits until they are in range and then unleashes devastating gunfire, killing or wounding many soldiers before detonating explosives that scatter the remaining forces. The narrative emphasizes his ability to overcome superior numbers through vigilance and combat expertise during intense woodland warfare.
