Dear Oscie, I am so glad to hear that everyone is doing well. I am so sick of fighting in this brutal war, but I am a proud American and Confederate soldier, fighting for our side and it's beliefs,even if I may not believe myself. War has cost me so much: my friends, leaders, and my pride. Seeing gruesome things happening to soldiers makes me sick to my gut, knowing I have no place to run to, and that that those dead could possibly be me one of these days, laying, sprawled out, bleeding to dead with no one to help me live. I don't when or if I will die. That scares me to death. We have been traveling a lot. Some places are Georgia, Kentucky, Maryland, Missouri, Mississippe, North Carolina, and Tennessee. We have mostly been fighting in Virginia. I will always remember my first battle.It was in Virginia in Fairfax County and Prince William County. It was nearly noon when the first shot was heard. I was elated when we won that first battle, even though I was sick from seeing so much bloody killing one man would never see in his whole life of living. Winning made our soldiers and I accumulate mounds of pride and joy, with feelings that could never be expressed. One of the battles we fought was in Virginia, where Robert S. Garnett was the first general officer to be killed during this war. Write back. I can't wait to hear from you soon Your Good Friend, Alex
