The Start

Dear Nikolai

I have finnaly arrived to boot camp. People there are pretty nice and I think this is going to be great.
I have met my new tank crew. Commader of my new tank Sherman Firefly is going to be Richtofen, quite a shy guy, but a good person. Next, we have radio-operator. In charge of that is Sam, who was really nervous because he was never outside him home town, but I think he'll fit in. Loader will be a guy named Bradley, strong guy, he can take care of himself. And finally we have driver named John, who has learned to drive german tanks, but they are similar. I can't wait to start shooting that 76.2 mm gun on Firefly. It's so good. I asked the general if we put put some paint on our tank, you know, to personalized it. I got a left side of a tank to paint, and I wrote believe in fireflies, Sam got a gun, and he said that for each tank we kill, we will draw a circle around gun barrel. Bradley wrote in big letters on top of the tank: "FREEDOM." John was little more modest, as he wrote: "Unite" on front of the tank. And finally, Richtofen wrote: "Search for light." Small, but cool.
Next week, we're going on our first mission together, I'll let you know how that works out.
Bye
Daniel
