And so when the rest of the team advanced they found little left. And that night the unit's commander did a sad duty, and he wrote a condolence letter back to the United States, and he talked about how hard the loss had been on his unit, about the fact that they had lost their bravest soldier, a soldier who had saved their lives many a time.
Så när hans team kom fram fanns det mycket lite kvar. Den kvällen gjorde befälet sin sorgesamma plikt och skrev ett kondoleansbrev tillbaka till USA, där han talade om hur hårt förlusten hade slagit mot enheten, över det faktum att de hade förlorat sin tappraste soldat, en soldat som hade räddat deras liv många gånger.
