Hey, how are you all doing out there ? Well, me I have just been trying to stay healthy and keep my head high so I can make it back to the only thing I have and that’s you all “my family”. I try not to think about you all too much because when I think about what's going on out there it makes me mad and I am so tired ‘’omg’’. We don't eat that much during war but when we get back to the base we eat pretty good, well actually really good. I notice that a lot of people donate food and medicine and first-aid kits too. I just got an Lee-Enfield rifle and it's a pretty nice gun, it can hold 10 bullets. I just been waiting to use it on, Germany, Austria-Hungary and the Ottoman Empire against the Allied forces of Great Britain, and there are some

Hey honny im sending you this letter for valentines day cause i know you love to hear about what goes on out here on the frontlines of the war. Its been mostly good for now weve been winning as i've been told but almost everyday theres a new disease trying to get to us everyday, mainly because of the rats.

Thank you for your letter. I could definitely write more, I just felt like I was out of time. I wanted to send you a message before you went to bed for the night. We had the same cold front come through. I am so ready for it to feel like spring again and stay warm this time. At least, it is officially spring now. Spring and summer are my favorite seasons.

The anonymous author of this letter had firsthand knowledge of the events he wrote home to his friend about. The letter was a few depictions of some war situations the author had been directly involved in, and showed very little bias. The only bias introduced was a direct result of the author being at war with Germany. The author used the slang names associated with dehumanizing the enemy he was entrusted to kill, in order to emotionally detach himself from what had to be done (1,2,3). One other small amount of bias displayed is for his unit; he feels his division would go down in history as second to none for their war efforts (1). Being a member of that division, he would naturally be biased.

I am in trenches trying to get all the mud and rats out of the trench. I miss you guys a lot and i dont think ill make it to see you again. The rats are huge from eating the dead corpses.

War Dedicated to all the soldiers who fought for their lives. Poppies growing in the garden Families left in nothing but despair, All because of a three-letter word. Heroes and brave soldiers in the sky And tears in people’s eyes, All because of a three letter word. Families separated, children crying, All because of a three-letter word.

I hope that everyone in the family is doing well and I am quite well. I am sorry that I am late to reply to your last few letters because I was wounded in the hospital as I got a bullet in my right arm. It is so hard to see so many men suffering in the war and I thought that this war is going to end all wars but may be I am wrong. After seeing the violence in the war I shall never forget this battle. Many of my group died as there was more than a hundred men and only five left and I consider myself and the other four lucky because we are only wounded. Now, I have been in the trenches for quite a long time. In the dawn, it is usually when the enemy attack so all the soldiers stand to guard the

Today is a day has a cold temperature and grey, extremely cold morning. I am travelling with a wolf-dog in the Yukon in Alaska. I am a newcomer to this place, a stranger, and this is the first time I went to the winter here. I feel so small when standing in a snowy winter. I walk on the Yukon trail and try to climb to higher ground. I stop to breathe and suddenly realize that now is the morning that I don’t see the sunshine, but I do not care too much by reason I got used to it. I look around, just only snow white where the cold does not faze me. To me to counteract fifty degrees below zero just wears gloves, a hat can cover the ears, leather shoes and warm

My dearest parents it's almost june. I hope this letter catches up with you. It's been wet but they have been calling for some sun. Everything here is the same old same. Fighting these Germans in these cramped up flooded trenches. I know dad isn't always proud of me and ain't much of a talker but tell him that i just got promoted to the operator of one of our tanks. I hope he is proud to call me his son when I am fixing up these tanks and shooting up these German soldiers.
