Very nice and very touching forward mail again !!!——————————————-
Horror gripped the heart of a World War-I soldier, as he saw hislifelong friend fall in battle. The soldier asked his Lieutenant if hecould go out to bring his fallen comrade back.
“You can go,” said the Lieutenant, “but don’t think it willbe worth it.Your friend is probably dead and you may throw your life away.”
The Lieutenant’s words didn’t matter, and the soldier went anyway.Miraculously, he managed to reach his friend, hoisted him onto hisshoulder and brought him back to their company’s trench.The officer checked the wounded soldier, then looked kindly at his friend.” I told you it wouldn’t be worth it,” he said. “Your friendis deadand you are mortally wounded.””It was worth it, Sir,” said the soldier.”What do you mean by worth it?” responded the Lieutenant.”Your friend is dead.””Yes Sir,” the soldier answered,”but it was worth it because when I got to him, he was still alive and Ihad the satisfaction of hearing him say…….
“man…I knew you’d come.”
