Soldiers in World War II


What a tough life!

What a tough life for our men on the front line.
Every man and boy from Great Britain has been told they have to join up, even some as young as 14. A Goverment spokesman told us,"Although we have 875,000,many more are needed as the Germans seem to be multiplying in numbers".
Many boys and men are afraid to join up as they are scared of never returning.They have also heard about all the heavy kit they have to carry.
This includes Mess tin,tinned ration,extra iron ration,spare socks and laces. They also carried a Lee Enfield rifle ;Greanades and gas mask.
Food ration tin included: oatmeal,meat, Biscuits,tea,chcolate and boiled sweets. All in all it weighs 25kg!
A mother who's son has gone to war said: "I am missing my boy. I am so worried about him but I am also proud."
"It is crazy how much they have to carry,the pack weighs more than he does."
All though these terrible times are ahead and our Father sons, uncles and cousins have to go, to whole of Britain is behind them 100% and all pray for safe ruturn.
Victory for the Allied forces is in sight,but we need more men in our forces.
Come on Bitain, help us win.
