BATTLE OF BUNKER HILL
"So Joey, I am going to tell you everything exactly how it happened:We are in position getting ready for British attack, and we find out that the British were going to occupy Worchester Heights a couple of days later. We decide to occupy Bunker Hill as a counter attack. There was 2 gunners set up on Bunker Hill, Private Maurice and I. Ralphy is Maurice's step brother and he is general of the 18th regiment. Maurice and I are ready for battle we are set up and waiting. We spot The first battle starts and the British attack us. They move in quickly in columns of four. They are marching towards Stark's line of nervous militiamen. The leading company for the British attack is called the Royal Welch Fusiliers. They get within 50 yards and get ready for charge when stark gives us order to fire. We tear up the British front column. Gunshots fly through the air, and British soldiers are just dropping to the floor. I am watching from my station at Bunker Hill as General Ralphy is shot to death. I run to him, take the musket from his hand and place it on the floor. I rip of the sleeve of my jacket and tightly wrap it around his gun wound. I watch as
We take their ammunitions and as we run back to our positions on Bunker Hill, we passed 15 of our men, who are now killed in cold blood. Lord Rawdon commands the Grenadier Company of the 5th regiment after captain Harris is wounded. As I go back to the gun at Bunker Hill, I notic that Maurice has been killed. We run to the British ammunitions fort and we decide we are going to charge in and shoot everyone in there. I look to the side and found out Private Abreu has walked in. We are slowly losing more and more men because of this. We also come across some of our men that were still alive. I was one of them but thanks to the nurse who helped me heal I was a survivor. She covers his mouth and nose and lets him suffocate, his eyes are bloodshot red, and his head just fell to the side. Little did we know, that she is running a sting operation with the British, instead of helping our men she kills them. She stops them from breathing and watches them as they suffocat to death. I feel this sharp pain fly through my left shoulder. General Howe suddenly sits up, he is not yet dead. I slowly force my self to crawl to the fort to get help.
