    Entry #1 Page Range: 1-8 Entry: We were on a mission today here’s how it went “enemy contact‚ hostiles on my position.” I knew there were hundreds of them out there.

    MADRID -- 1 JANUARY 1883 - NOVEMBER 1884 1st January 1883 Night‚ I don’t know what vague melancholy‚ an indefinable loneliness‚ smothers my soul. It is similar to the profound sadness that cities manifest after a tumultuous rejoicing‚ to a city after the happiest celebration. Two nights ago‚ that is‚ 30 December‚ I had a frightful nightmare when I almost died.1 I dreamed that‚ imitating an actor dying on the stage‚ I felt vividly that my breath was failing and I was rapidly losing my strength.

He had a way of making me feel so absolutely important when he looked at me. And when I talked I knew he was listening to every word that came out of my mouth. Usually when I talk everyone just takes me for a fool and barely pays any attention at all to what I’m saying. But not him. When he smiled at me

I find it amazing how the soldiers did not give up‚ no matter the harsh‚ unfair conditions that they had to face. Without such strong and dedicated men‚ the world would not be what it is today.
