One of my readers commented that I had managed to showcase one of the issues of combat – 99% boredom and 1% sheer terror. We actually get to see that in Chapter 28. It extends for eight months through what Grim has begun to understand is now routine nightmare. Enjoy!

Another long chapter. So far the response to the story has been quite good. I’ve had a few veterans say it reminded them of their service. In a lot of ways, I say two things; thank you for your service and it must have really sucked. My descriptions of what Grim went through are probably not as bad as what it was really like.

Lots of things happen in Chapter 26, and it’s a longer than average chapter. I think for the first time we are seeing the toll that combat takes on a man, and not just in the physical sense. More on this to come. Enjoy!

Now we really start to see the true meaning of the nickname, Grim Reaper. This is a relatively short chapter, but the next one will make up for it. Enjoy!

Here is Chapter 24. It is about to get very, very real for Grim. This is no longer training. Enjoy!
