Dear Diary,
My troop is on the move again, we are in the back of military truck going towards a basecamp 20 miles from the outskirts of the captiol city, that is as far as we can go because the outskirts are heavily defended, we have sent soldier to try to break the defense line but failed, even with helicopters and tanks can't even break through, we just don't have the firepower and the men to fight back. In the truck with me is a staff sargeant, 2 privates, and some new recruits. Behind the truck is a tank that will provide cover in case we come under attack from the enemy. The ground is blanketed in snow and ice, dead tanks and other vehicles are were destroyed in previous battles. The most recent battle was a few days ago and we won the battle, 5,000 of my men were killed, 7,000 wounded or missing, 10 tanks went into the battle and only 4 left the battle. I took a bullet to the upper arm and my arm is all wrapped up. The truck ahead of us is transporting prisoners and the truck behind the tank is transporting rescued vulpine and vixen slaves and prisoners, we have heard from the slaves that the prisons are absolutely morbid, screams from others being tortured can be heard in the prison blocks and the methods of torture are horrible, from isolation chamber where prisoners go crazy to being electrocuted from a battery from a truck. Many of them die and many tell me when they were in the prisons they wanted to die instead of getting tortured, it's sad. Many children have been saved from the prisons before they were put to work in the diamond mines and get killed from the machinery. I've seen first hand how dangerous the diamond mines are, I used to work in them before the war. I still have nightmares about battles, the battles are bloody, grusome, and simply awful. We are about to reach the basecamp, I'll write soon.
