Battle Fire #6
A soldier recounts his experiences from his first year in France, describing how he zeroed in on an enemy machine gun nest and eliminated the gunners one by one. When an entire German patrol approached through the woods, he waited in hiding until they were in range, then unleashed devastating gunfire that killed multiple enemy soldiers and forced the rest to surrender. The narrative captures intense close-quarters combat and the narrator's tactical skill in picking off enemies and routing an entire enemy unit.
