You wake up in the turret of a tank in your loader position and see Miller standing next to you in his commander position, " sleep well stretch?" he asks " yea no thanks to Peter's driving" you respond. "Hey I heard that" you hear Peter say over the radio from his driver seat located in front of the tank under the main gun. "Yeah, you know you drive like my mother" you yell back over the radio. "But i thought I was your mother" he replies making you smile at his response. You look over at the gunner Ingram who surprisingly is still asleep despite you and Peter yelling over the radio, "Hey Ingram wake up" you say while you shake him awake. "What , we there already?" he asks sleepily, "No we're just outside the town line" Miller responds. " Alright, I'm up" Ingram says while he tries to stretch inside the cramped turret. "Hey, load up a HEAT round since we're most likely going to be doing urban combat alright?" Says Miller, "right one HEAT round coming up." you respond.
You stomp on the pedal on the floor and open up the door that reveals the rounds for the tanks main gun, you reach in and grab a HEAT round from the rack, turn around, and slam the round home inside the breach. You successfully load the round as the breach block rises up and locks the round in place, you reach beside you and arm the main gun and yell"UP" so that the gunner knows that the gun is loaded.
"Hey head topside and see whats wrong with the antenna I think someone forgot to un hook it from the turret" says Miller, "Roger" you reply. You look up and push open the hatch above your head and climb out on to the tank and look and see the main antenna is in fact still tied down, you carefully crawl over to the antenna because the tank is still moving, slowly, but still moving. After unhooking the antenna you begin to walk back over to your hatch and radio down that the antenna has been freed. Just before you open that hatch to get back in there is a sudden pain in your right shoulder and an invisible force knocks you off the turret, "Miller halt, I got hit by and fell-----" before you could finish you see your tank explode in a bright, hot flash of fire that sent you flying backwards you lay there looking at the sky numb. Slowly the pain from your shoulder comes into focus, then slowly you feel a new pain in your left calve, you manage to sit up and see a long shard of metal sticking right where you feel the pain. You look over and see what remains of the tank siting there burning, unrecognizable, you begin to look around to see if anyone managed to survive, but you know the chances were less than small. you fall back onto the grown and look back at the sun and close your eyes, feeling its warmth.
Suddenly you sit up from your bed quickly and look around you room and see no one else, " damn dream again" you say to yourself, you look over and see its 4:00 in the morning, "well thats enough sleep for one day" you say as you get up and decide...........
