After a noisy afternoon with a Bren firing 12 inches from my left ear, I was deafened. |
Bren pulled Sarah's hair till I thought it was going to rip right off her head. |
An Italian chap came up to us and made signs that he would like to fire the bren gun. |
Then they began to make war, to slay people and to bren villages and to do many sore displeasures. |
Though the direct threat to his life was over, Bren still felt a tremor of fear at the bottom of his jaw. |
As he paused beside a large rock to reload his Bren gun, he was shot dead by a sniper. |
