Kim, you seem so unassuming and kind. I am thinking "who has taken over Kim's mind and written this one?" But of course I know it is you. Throwing out all the unnecessary words, but keeping all the right ones in.

And none of his platoon will be rushing to get him out of the ditch. Good one, Kim. Best wishes in the contest!

So sad! So the dead man could be both the dishonorable and the one in the ditch...perhaps both.
