A Choice

This is a fictitious story of an Army tank platoon in the early days of the Korean Conflict. The Platoon Sergeant is a battle hardened vet from the Second World War. His first platoon leader is a superb leader who knows his tactics and can get the job done.



After the second skirmish the Company commander is taken out of action and the 1st platoon leader is promoted to the Company commanders position.



This leaves a gap in the 1st platoon. Although Sgt black takes command and can easily take care of any situation that would arise. Soon a brand new 2nd LT is on board and it is Sgt blacks duty to teach him the ropes to try and keep him alive during his first few days in country.



Although this is not the best situation to be in Sgt Black does his best to coach the Lt so he can run the platoon effectively. As the days and weeks pass the drama of war plays itself out and things will change for Sgt Black forever.
