Frontline.
Del Oro!
This southern stronghold in Coahuila State, solemn. The streetsides are adorned with chrysanthemums symbolizing remembrance.
Quiet enough to make one sad.
In Victor Square.
Hundreds of coffins lay adorned with the Mexican flag, symbolizing courage. Inside, lay those from Company A who had perished in the "Savilian Village" battle.
Some had their skulls shattered by bombs, their faces unrecognizable, but morticians spent a long time restoring them so that they could rest peacefully on their journey.
Many bodies still bore shrapnel.
General Kennedy, dressed in military uniform.
Followed by Rommel of the Fourth Marine Division and Chief of Staff Fedor von Bock.
And hundreds of warriors.
In the low, mournful music, the honor guard slowly entered, carrying the coffins into a C-130 transport plane.
"Fire the salute!"
Bang!
Bang!
The bullets flew at a 45-degree angle, piercing the sky!
