Today I got into an altercation with another soldier, Sargent Justin.
When I was sleeping Justin came into my cabin and attempted to steal all of my food and clothes ; he wasn't being quiet with it at all either.
As soon as I heard foot steps coming in my cabin , I jumped up quick as a mouse.
When Justin seen my face he froze and dropped my bag and then I heard something break .
All hell was about to break lose.
Quickly, I attacked Justin & he was screaming for help.
Our general grabbed us by our collard shirts and threw us in a tiny dungeon. He said  " UNTIL YOU MAGGOTS LEARN TO GET ALONG YOU WILL NOT BE GETTING OUT OF HERE " with fire in his eyes as he slammed the door shut .
I felt so guilty I felt like I was about to puke .
"My children will never forgive me "
I said as tears filled my eyes.
