My grandad is a soldier of the 2nd world war he was fighting in India against the Japanese. His job in india was to protect the boarder line from planes. He used a huge anti aircraft gun to shoot down enemy planes. He was stuck in a bunker with eight other people but he cannot remember their names. the british army had made a mistake that my grandfather was soon to find out. The great anti aircraft guns were designed for taking down enemy planes and in the line infront of them protecting the boarder from ground attack, at least they should have been there. The generals had made a mistake and left a gap in the line the Japanese found this gap with only a few men. But they ran into my grandads bunker but luckly they had been provided with short range guns (pistols)and shot them all with only one casulty of their own. His bunker were able to collect all the valuable goods from the dead Japenese. such as : swords and food and ammunation.

Message 1 - Grandad in India

My Dear Stephen,

It would appear that your story is a result of some classroom exercise
with an extrmely gullible teacher, as I doubt that your Grandad would tell you such a tale of his derring do with a bunch of Japanese Soldiers armed to the teeth and bent on killing everyone in sight.

Do ask your Grandad to write your next essay, if he is still around that is ... if he is not then I am extremely sorry !
