I read your story in my English class for an assignment. As I read it, I didn�t really understand it, but as I went on, I realized, you were writing as you where one of those people who died in war. You saw your mother, your wife and your son visiting you. You described how you son was trying to be a man and not cry, but in the end he saluted you and wiped away a tear. This affected me because I saw how a solider, died from war is remembered and can possibly see things from the other side of the wall. People usually don�t think about the wall, and what it represents, but you changed that. You showed me how a solider would think about the lives we live in now thanks to them. I appreciate how you wrote from the perspective of the wall and the soldiers within because I now see how the soldiers where affected by war after death, and seeing into the eyes of their love ones.
