Well, Snoopy, since you like imagining WWI so much, being wounded and operated on is another thing for you to imagine… “at most he will only last a few days. What he has gone through so far is nothing to what he’s in for till he dies. Now he is numb and feels nothing. In an hour he will become one screaming bundle of intolerable pain. Every day that he can live will be a howling torture.” (All Quiet on the Western Front)
