the things they carried- 11

 In this part of the book i read from page 65 to 68. These pages were mostle about Dave Jensen and Lee Strunk. They had both signed a paper saying that if either of them got injured or "wheelchair bound" they would kill the other. One day on patrol Strunk stepped on a rigged mortar and his leg got blown off. He begged Jensen not to kill him. He didn't. Somewhere in the jungle over a village called chu in his helicopter he was in Strunk died. Then one of his good friends Rat wrote a letter to his sister about how much of a great man he was. She didnt even respond which was so messed up. Something like that a brother of yours dieing in war and one of his friends writes a letter to you and you don't write back? Thats really messed up.
