they didn't just fight the enemy

they were fighting: leaches, illnesses, woons, malnureshment, exsution, and so much more

Grandpa would be real proud of what you have written here. Even prouder to know that the legacy he has left behind has not gone to someone who does not appreciate what he has done for our Country. In fact, you do him GREAT honor and respect - so much so that I am proud that you are my daughter, and a good person. And I am certain that having the Grandpa you have actually had something to do with that fact.

Nice writing

I like learning about wars (and history in general) and I haven't heard of them. I'm glad that you wrote a story... though I think this is more of a poem... to inform people about. Way to go.
Just to let you know: bleave= believe.
