With violent words

That day... She would remember that day for the rest of her life....

German troops entered the outpost they were defending. The raid was brutal and many fellow soldiers fought bravely, she included... Charles never saw her fight like that and in his dumbstruck stupidity, he left himself open for an attack. Luckily, Sammy could stop the sniper in time and Charles was only shot in his arm, but shame... He was rescued by a woman, six years younger than he...

The German forces couldn't gain access to the outpost and made a retreat. The Allied troops were victorious and a celebration was needed.

Only fourteen men of a troop of fifty-eight were lost and the only badly injured member of the troop... was "Lil' Chuckie." The nurses tried to comfort him, he wast a good soldier... But his girl keep winning everything he wished to accomplish. The last straw came at the celebration for defeating the Germans. With champagne in hand and many of the men raising Sammy in their shoulders, she was proclaimed "main hero of the squad." They tried to get Chuckie to celebrate as well, but his dignity was destroyed... Bested by a woman... Who would have thought?

The next morning, he went to the gun caché... And he was gone. His shame was too much to bear. That day, Sammy was changed... She went berserk when going out in the field.... The men found it enticing, the women saw it abominable... A widow determined to fight? What was happening?

Only one nurse saw Sam, as she preferred to be called, under a positive light. A beautiful redhead that was bored of being home and decided to bring some action into her life...

Sam would act tough around her male peers but every night, she would melt into tears... If she only stayed home... Or rather, if only she wasn't the freak she was. But it was in her blood... And she couldn't deny it.
