Yes! Often times young men viewing horror up close and personal become creative or cryptic in their writing; in an attempt to conceal the realities of war from their loved ones. It was their way of protecting them. Also, the omnipresent censor enforced a redaction in some of their writings. If you would like to show those redactions in your writing, go for it. Write either letters home to loved ones or keep a journal. Soldiers were not as tight-lipped about their experiences in a personal journal; including the smallest details about their experiences in war. Several of these documents eventually were recorded into books written by veterans of the war. Today, Department of Defense (US) forbids any service member from keeping a journal or recording events in a diary. The fear is that the enemy might capture this document and use it against the soldier's unit. Today, a soldier needs to remember as much detail as he can and recall it all once he gets back to the world.

I should have the OOC posted later this week. Tonight is Game of Thrones night with the wife. She works Sunday evenings, so I save it so we can watch it together. I actually watched 7:1 three times last week. :)
