Saved By A Chicken - Dean Stevens

Bombs and artillery shells were falling all around him. Bullets were whistling within inches of his head. He is in shoulder-high water as he struggles to reach the beach ahead of him. He sees his captain step on a land mine as he reaches the sandy beaches, just yards in front of him. The sight of his captain flying straight up in the air puts a fear in him he has never experienced. He thinks, God, help me. I don't want to die here!
