It has been so long since I have had the time to write you a letter, we as the Germans are very harsh to the other side and it takes large amounts of time.

We were the first to use them and it was a surprise to the other side. The most deadly poisonous gas was the “mustard gas” it caused coughing, blindness, skin blisters, lung damage, and even death. Eventually, there were masks that were designed to prevent the gas from harming you, otherwise we would just pray that it rained that night to clear out the gas. Some of the higher ranked soldiers came up with the idea if creating U-Boats, which were submarines to torpedo any ship that we believed would be sending supplies to the other side. I guess you could say that we were harsh, but what needs to be done will be done. We would launch bombs from our trenches or our line and didn’t care who
