Chapter 1

 

'Come on Pete, get your fat arse up here'.

Pete Collingham was pulled up onto the back of the truck by two hands and as he gained purchase onto the back of the vehicle the hands let go and he dropped himself down onto the wooden planks that were now being used as a bench to house two rows of soldiers, Pete looked at the man by his side, 'thanks but you can drop the fat arse comments, you will never find a more toned backside that mine'.

'Fucking sit down and shut up, and I could not give a rat's fanny about your arse'.

The man by his side spat out the words and Pete wished for once the men in his unit could be nice to each other, Jesus they were going through a war together. He sat and looked across at the material covering their lorry and tried not to make eye contact with the man now opposite him.

The lorry loaded quickly and the engine which had been idling as the men boarded roared and with the driver seemingly hitting every bump he could find in the road they began moving.
