Joseph Becker marched silently alongside his comrades, sheltered by the darkness of the tree canopy. His thoughts were strung together, a tangled web the wind had knotted so well. The movement of his feet was automatic, slightly out of step from the rest of his regiment, but there were no officers near to point out such minutiae. They were on a march
to their deaths, though none would admit it. General Ulysses S. Grant had called for reinforcements at Gettysburg, Pennsylvania and President Lincoln had responded by sending Joseph's regiment on their death-walk.

The only sounds ringing in the men's ears now were that of their feet on the forest path. No birds sang; they had been scared off long ago by the guns, but the men could no longer understand their fear...
Never interrupt your enemy when he's making a mistake... unless it's to remind him that he won't fail... he just won't kill you.

I think it's a traditional storybook where you use one character and each write a small part of the story from (in this case his) point of view...

That wasn't all that nice,


Name: Keri Ann Allen

Goes by: William Smith

Position: Soldier

Looks:Short, Blue eyes, brown hair *cut short like a boys, she keeps her face dirty so that no one can tell she is a girl, has her boosom wrapped *though that should be obvious*

Keri slowly followed the man in front of her. Her feet hurt and the gun she carried was getting heavy. She had to fight, it was better then staying at home wiht her father who was the town drunk. She hadn't been found out yet and she wouldn't ever be found out if she had a say in it.
