Being In Charge
Joining the army at the age of 16 was young but people told me I was always mature for my age. My name is Thomas and I'm from Ballyfermot Dublin. I always wanted to be in the army and have tried to get in several times and now I'm finally in. We have to go to Saudi Arabia to keep peace alongside the British. I want to be in charge because I'll be a better leader than sergeant Healy. He wants to go in from the front but if I was in charge I'd go around the back and flank them. Because of sargent Healy’s mistake 400 men died that day.
