I love the story line, and making it seem as though the young soldier had died was very clever. There are a few editing needs, which can be cleared up. The use of "ratatat and boom boom" is a little youngish, perhaps you should say "the unmistakable chatter of AK-47 fire served as a backdrop to the continuous thudding of mortar shells" or something.
Some other wordings and dialogue need to be smoothed, but other than that, it's a tidy little story...
Best of luck,
