Day 1 Oct.12 1930

17th rifle division…of shore of Germaneigh

Rank privet

Kind Pegasi   sex Female

The sounds of guns blazing and shells exploding in the distance as the beach lights up in the night sky, many men stocked in the assault crafts were ready to be deployed climbing down the stairs. Two men climbed on the back getting on the guns behind the driver bullet shields covered most of them in the front, more and more gathered in. Different types of breeds of pony’s  with rifles on their backs and an odd pegasi got In with them none said a word feeling the battleship swaying back and forth with the rough waves the sergeant got in his coat was orange his blue sapphire eyes and spoke out

“OK 17th rifle division we got to take this beach head as of now our guns are pounding the beach right now-”

the boat shakes as the guns fire with a blaze “as soon as we leave this boat I want you to keep down do not get out until we hit the beach head pegasi do not fly or you’re an easy target” the segment yelled. He held on as an alarm bales out the sound of rushing water fills with the slow doors open. The boats left the bay doors as the fleet rides the waves up. Gun fire is heard from the beach with guns blazing behind as the shock wave caught them by surprise most of them jumped the butter colored pegasi ducked deep in herself from the shots and hearing the blast of shells in the distance. The assault crafts headed up the beach a group of 15 boats were in close formation inside the hull. The orange stallion spoke out again “OK move up the beach and head over to the shingles over the top of the beach DO NOT STOP GALLOPING until you hit the shingles”

“IN COMING!”

as the privet point to the sky looking to the sky a stuka did its staffing shooting coming down with a flashing sight the men on the fifty’s opened up as the butter pegasi covered her ears with a steady fast beating rattle as the stuka pulled up most of the bullets killed most of the crew in the second boat next to them seeing the devastating run agents the unprotected boats. Then a second came by shooting dropping a bomb the feel of the blast tossed the boats away. Looking over to the boat looked like an inferno as it sunk beneath the waves. Burnt corpses were floating, washing up the beach. As they got closer a boat blasted from beneath. A sea mine splashed the waters raining down on to them gun fire started to shower them. Red hot streaks fly’s with Fear showering the boats bursting into flames. The troops flew in the air. The stallion spoke one more time “follow me all the way and do not stop!” They approached the beach. As they heard whistling shells flying over them then they all replied  “sir yes sir” The driver yelped out “ten seconds” as they hit the beach heads defenses tilting it on its side.

A whistle sounded out “clear the boat” yelped the driver as the doors flew open. The two men on the 50cals open fired both got shot to death as blood ran down the metal

“KEEP MOVING”

They galloped across the waters. Cutting an infantry’s throat as the bullets zip past them splashing all around. The beach head filled with the divisions all galloping to the shingles. The pegasi tripped on the bodies of the fallen. The stallion grabbed her bag and pulled her to cover. The pegasi was startled when bullets sparked agents the tank barricade and gutted the body open the blood running from his wounds seeping in the sand she turned on her side vomiting in the sand. The air filled with screams and hanged heavy with blood. When a mortar shell blasted 40 meters away she became shell shocked time itself had slowed down her ears rang out the muffled scrams as she just sat their her vision blurred in and out watching men galloping around her bullets making their marks as they fall lifelessly to the ground. Another boat drove up opening its doors they got blasted with artillery barraged the troops didn’t have enough time to get to cover. One walked out when she turned she was missing half of her face and fallen in to the waters. Her vision became more clear Looking at the ocean and the sand stained in red from the bodies as they wash up to shore. She frozen there as she became out of state more came up she turned again vomiting once then again after when all the men got to cover. The orange stallion grabbed her arms and shook her

“hey not time to die now come on”

She turned her head forward and hears them screaming out one word “Medic”. Fear stains the air as red streaks fly by from the bunkers red eyes. A soldier caught from the mortar strikes one came to his rescue as he try to pull him to cover as he gets shot up. From his clothes were torn apart he fell on the sand and his flesh was cut open. He was yelling in pain holding his chest the blood came out of his mouth, nose and from the opened wounds

"mother! mother!"

just bleeding to death she got up and dragged him to cover behind the barricades  she looked down at him in severe pain he was in. She dug in her medical kit grabbing a syrette she Removed the transparent head of the morphine syrette. Grasping the wire loop and pushed the wire in to pierce inner seal. Taking care of not touching the needle with her fingers or any other object she pull out and discard the wire, thrusting the needle through his skin till at least half its length, and inject the solution by slowly squeezing syrette from the sealed end. In the part of the body which she knew can be most quickly and easily exposed in the loose skin of the upper arm, which should be used for the place of injection wrapping him in bandages leaning him against the tank barriers. Yelling was heard “get down” as the flashing from the hills long streaks came down as shells rain down from the sky splashing dirt around. She hears a call for her name looking around. When another was shot up in the chest falling in the barb wire and another blasted through steel cutting an privets stomach open he was on the dirt calling his Mother the sight was gruesome to his inside are out. A medic came up to him “hang in there son you will be alright” Lying about his condition

“Fluttershy help me”.

She hears a plea for help in reaction she bolted for the call. “Hang on” is all she could say. The stallion barked out her name “Fluttershy no”.

She can feel the sand behind her starting to splatter up running a trail “get behind something” one shouted out diving behind a downed P47 thunderbolt. An amphibian assault tank comes out from the waters firing its 75mm gun taking out the small bunker near the barb wire. A sharp flash from the hill with a whistling shell burst the tank into flames as some caught by the fire galloping around screaming to be silence by a field gun.

“Toughs 88’s are killing us” yelped out a private.

The sergeant called out “covering fire and follow me”.

Fluttershy crawling to the lone grey pegasi private in the crater created from artillery fire. “Come with me” was all she could say the grey pegasi looked over her golden odd eyes

“all right Fluttershy” she said nodding her head.

All at once a final call of ADVANCE was yelled out getting out from cover. Every solder galloped up the beach as bullets cut the infantry division apart Galloping as they followed the one after the other. Blasting of shells and mines limbs torn off with every blast the barb wire caught some of the broken bodies were they lie. All got picked off only a small hand full of men made it but Fluttershy and Derpy were still running through the kill zone. A small hand full of the troops made it and fired at the bunkers flashing eyes. As the sergeant barked out “don’t stop Galloping”

Both Pegasus’s made it across the kill zone pressing against the cover from the bank. “We made it Flutter” as the odd eyed private fired rounds in the bunkers red flashing eyes.

Fluttershy looking for the stallion that he was galloping with some men “Come on come on sergeant don’t stop, don’t stop galloping” he was shot by a sniper to his chest. Slowing down he fell to his knee’s looking at the Pegasi in her eyes was tears nodding her head with his last breath he yelled out to her “I’m sorry Fluttershy”. The bunker in front of them flashed the bullets ripped him apart, shredding the flesh off with lead. Fluttershy was screaming out.

Derpy turned her head towards her screaming she got up to save him but Derpy dropped her rifle and wrapped her arms around her waist and tried to hold her back “stop Fluttershy” as she held her down

“let go of me” she screamed

Derpy was struggling to hold her back “no” she yelled back.

“Let go of me I can still save him” she pulled her down to look her in the eyes.

“He’s gone” the tears fell from her eyes soaking in the chest of Derpy “he‘s gone ok” she held her close towards her chest

“he’s still alive” laying against the bank. The pegasi crying against her chest her tears soaked in her uniform. Then silence came over the beach “they stopped?” she said in tears

the creaking of metal the intense heat of the barrels smoke escaping through and the hissing of cooling weapons as they looked out for enemy’s and scanned the beach to shoot at the commander yelling out “reload all weapons”

the MG’s clicked open the sound of empty shell casings fall off to the floor and empty box magazines tossed away MG’s clicking and locking them in place as they readied for anything.

“What can we do Derpy?” looking at her and she pulled herself together.

“Wait for the second wave” she said

on the battle cruiser looking through his binoculars an Lieutenant started to head for the deck “sir the first wave have been completely wiped out” he said standing at attention

“any survivors?” he said watching from the battleship

“Yes a small squad though”. he said the witness of the carnage watching each pony gutted leaving him helpless watching his men fall

“Send the second wave” the look in the generals face was mix with anger and sadness all the lieutenant can do was his orders

“yes sir” he said walking back into the observation post

The second wave loaded up the doors open up. The assault boats drove off with a crew of 10 all different kinds. One spoke out “All right Dog Company” the red stallion look around with his emerald green orbs at his squad one threw up on the steel floor and another uneasy on the rough waves. “Follow me and do what I say and you will be alright sure shot. The golden unicorn looked over

“Yes sir.” he said ducking at the whistling shells blasting in the waters

“Can you give us sniper support?”  Nodding his head in understand

“YA”.

Demo the stallion looked over to the red one and know what he supposed to do “Yes I know me and my friends will plant explosives at the breach point got it” he said in a manehatten ascent

“Good”. The firestorm from the beach started up as they got closer the bullets hitting the metal, the sound of ping noise is heard the two men on the 50cals. Fired to the skies from passing stuka’s

“TEN SECONDS” yelled the driver

“Get ready…Clear the boat”. as he yelled out

Galloping through the waves as the waters splashed up from bullet entry “Go, go!!!” one got hit by the rain of hell ripping his jacket apart as they zip by them. One comes to rescue the fallen solider.

“Leave him!” A loud ping noise is heard as blood splattered the ground he fell as the helmet floats away the blood running through the waters from the open wound

“dam it to Luna’s moon” moving to cover as the sand fly’s around them and sparks fly with every bullet hitting metal

“Go, go!!!” one yelled out

“Get behind something” a screaming in the air was heard everyone looked up in the cloudy sun. A black silhouette flies down as many men got shot by a strafing stuka. One made it out alive holding his leg, the red stallion dragging him to cover. Another scream was heard as more stukas we’re strafing. One stuka had dropped a pay load while the red stallion was dragging the other to safety as a blast was felt behind him, looking back to him to see he was only dragging half of his body. Parts of his organs spilling out blood, his intestines hanging out and sliding out slowly. Cursing to himself as he was getting to cover

an earth pony yelled out to the stallion “Big brother?” as bullets marked their shots

“What?” the sergeant replied.

“We still got 10 men up there!” Looking up one more time there was a stuka seen strafing them again and again before leaving.

“Fluttershy” the pegasi looked over to the young odd eyed Pegasus

“yes” her eyes were staring deep inside her she held her rifle close indicting not a good sign

“I’ll get their attention” she said. She looked in her eyes was tears forming in them Derpy looked away from her look that painfully tare at her

“No” as she grabbed her by her arms. Looking over to her she grabbed her arm

“I have to if I don’t we won’t have another chance to get off this beach” loosening her grip

“OK be safe”. Derpy put up a smile and spoke

“Hey don’t worry Flutters” poking up the bank running to the other side firing round after round. The Pegasi looked up and started to fire the machine gunners duck after getting shot up from the bank letting go the trigger the second one noticed this and started to shot at the pegasi giving her no choice but to stay down. Giving the company some time

“Big brother they stopped shooting” one yelled out getting up and Galloping to the bank and Demo followed behind him

“Go” diving to cover as Demo and his crew start to set a charge in the sand. The gunners fired at them making it hard for them. one was shot in the head as her body fell on the explosives staining her blood on the explosive pulling her body off tarring a wire

“NO dam it has to be manual triggered” the second engineer was shot by a sniper he fell along the bank he grabbed Demo by his tail

“get out of here ill set it off” he ripped his tags from his neck and handed to him he pushed Demo away as he hid

“Stay down” Derpy yelling out

“Get down” as she was silence by a shot. the marksmen had a great view point the butter colored pegasi saw the gleam of light flashed from his scope she picked up an sniper rifle from a dead body of a earth pony taking aim to see him the scope was swaying as she steadied the rifle tears started to shed as she lined up her shot squeezed the trigger the bullet soar through the air entering his scope he fell from the snipers nest until hitting the rocks below Big Macintosh yelled

“Demo Now” Demo looked to the engineer he pulled the pin of his grenade and yelled

“FIRE in the HOLE” the blast took him and the barbwire out from the sand scattering the blood and shrapnel’s.

“Advanced” they all galloped up the hill to meet the Sombratic Empire up close

“get up the hill” the red stallion looking and firing as the Sombratic shot at his men around him an stiehandgranate bounced near them they all jumped away from the grenade but one was unfortunate the blast took one he was screaming as blood ran down his face the medic tried to stop the bleeding looking to the nearest bunker

“Demo” big Macintosh yelled out over the gun fire

“Yeah” he said hiding behind some cover

“Come with me” the bunkers solid steel doors Fluttershy jumped down holding a satchel charge lying it agents the door getting out of the blast range the door got blown out of its hinges fighting their way in the bunker Fluttershy took the MG nest while Big Macintosh and Demo getting to the 88’s on the other side of the battlefield

some men fall in line with her at the doors they readied their guns one kicked the door down shooting Fluttershy came in second not firing a round  most were dead some were alive. She then dropped her weapon she was in shock at the scene as she rushed to the nearest alive one the men around her took another look at them they too were shocked all were in their mid-teens and thirty’s as she knelled down to a bleeding young adult as she held a cloth over his wound putting pressure. The young adult was only seventeen and he was coughing out blood an medic came running in followed by a grey unicorn with his medical supplies

“I-I’m n-n-not go-going to make it right” he said

“don’t say that I’m not letting you die” as she said in injecting the syrette in his arm he opened his eyes a mist green that faded to purple was flowing out from his blue eyes

“why?” was the only word spoke from him

“here I’ll get you up” she put his arm around her neck and trotted off outside of the bunkers laying him down still trying to keep him alive.

“OK set the charge here near the ammo feeder” Demo was setting up the bomb as shots took over his head

“ya give my 5 minutes” he yelled as sparks lit up next to him

“you got it” the charges were set as he pulled the timer ticking as the time reached zero the ammo dump and the shell loader lighted up in flames as it exploded

“get down” taking out both 88 flak guns and taking care of the rest of the Sombratic army the blast shook the ground Fluttershys’s hand were covered in crimson red over her butter hands there was no end to his bleeding he pulled off his tags and handed them to her dark red covered hands he was smiling with his hand on her cheek and with a death wish

“keep them” she smiled to him as he died of bleeding out

“Both bunkers and field guns are down and the Sombratic army are in full retreat Commander. The beach is ours” the men cheering as Sombratic P.O.W’s walked in a line sitting down on the crumbling bunker. Fluttershy walked past them her ears perked up to listen in

“you hand an easy kill on the stallion that just stand there” a trooper said

“yes komerade I did it almost looked like he begged for it stupid Solar dogs” he laughed his trench coat covered most of him

“easy now general they put up a good fight though” he said not wanting another battle unarmed

“not for my taste it was good killing herring the scream of a girl when I shot him down HA”. Without warning he felt a hard bash to his head knocking him snout first to the hard cement he got up to throw one to her as he was stopped by her eyes she was staring him down he never felt this before fear in a long time since he fledged his alliance to the Fuhrer he started to kneel down under her stair his machine gunner started to cower under her death star sending fear and chills.

“please no more please I give up” she blinked and then she looked around her surroundings most of the troops looked away from her the P.O.W’s all had the sight of fear in them she walked down the beach as her hand held in a fist Macintosh followed her down to see what he can do for her and the rest of the 17th rifle division was cut into a Platoon of 18 men they lost 1,204 infantry 114 injured and in care as he guessed the mass size of bodies

The butter pegasi heading back to the beach to find Derpy’s body laid against the bank there. Lifeless kneeling next to her and feel for a pulse looking at the gunshot to her chest was fatal she was crying against her. Macintosh was coming down the hill this butter pegasi was fresh off the lines of duty he walking over the shattered bodies that lay before him

“no one should experience this at first hand” he said out loud to no one. He reached a hand for her shoulder he felt her jumped at his touch. She looked up next to her was a red stallion she remembered

“big… Macintosh” she said looking deep inside his emerald green orbs looking in her sapphire blue orbs. He knelled next to her loss friend

“I’m sorry that you had to see this I wish you came in later on”. Macintosh reached over to take her tags and hand them over to Fluttershy.

“She was a good friend was she” big Macintosh said looking at the pegasi.

“She was more than a friend she was a Sister to me” Macintosh got up and looked to the littered beach then looked down to her

“would you like to travel with Dog Company with us” as he scratched the back of his head. The butter colored pegasi looked at Macintosh and his squad walking down the hill. Still tears in her eyes she then jumped the feel of a hand reached for hers looking down tilting her head slowly.

“Hey” her eyes widen

“Derpy” she lifted her up as she yelped at the pain.

“How?” she reached in her gunshot wound she pulled out a cook book was ripped right through just stopping at the second hard cover.

Fluttershy picked her up as they walked up the hill as she took her in the medical bay to get her patched up. Macintosh left hearing her say “don’t move doctor Fluttershy knows what to do”. Looking back again as she found the beach littered in bodies and stained in red looking to the transports as they dropped off tanks armored cars and transports then zeppelins the gathering of bodies as they place them in steel cases shipping them to their final resting place. The p.o.w.s is being transported to a prison camp. Fluttershy righting down the day of her memory that burn in her mind looking back to the beach the waters is still red and the sands stain in blood as the remains of bodies still lie when I look back at that beach I could not believe that 1,568 men died right in front of me. As they screamed cry and the air is heavy with the smell of powder my brothers and friends I never believed in heroes but I sense there will be but this day will hunt me for the rest of my life I will never forget End of My Journal entry
