Elise's ANZAC writing

 Jim's journal

We were all sitting round the campfire, a tiny speck of light in between the mist, its embers

crackling like the guns going off the day before.I wondered what had happened to Carl, my

german soldier friend who got sent to the sick tent. knots are getting tied in my heart. I miss him

like he was part of my family but I am glad to have Nipper, my very loyal messenger dog friend

here as well as the other soldiers here too. Just as we were going  to bed I heard footsteps

behind me I spin around I see no one at all just mist and the lovely flamingo pink sky. When

suddenly out of the mist I saw…..Carl!! I hugged him tight [ Not too tight because his wound was

still healing.] and invited him to come in my tent to sleep for the night.
