The Paper, thus far.

It is to be expected that almost each person’s definition of “victory” varies, even if the variation is slight. “The organic unity of flesh and sword ready to kill, the hardness of steel as a part of one’s manhood, provides an excellent example of the warrior image… (Mosse, 166).” For the soldiers of WWI Germany, this “victory” began to spawn not only from the official “winning” or “losing” of a battle, but from daily trials encountered after the War was long over. “The primitive as the genuine also helped to form this ideal type, disciplined and directed toward achieving victory, not just in war but in all aspects of life (Mosse, 166).”
I am confused. I have nothing to write any longer no I musn't write for it will all be false, any how. I musn’t write. I musn’t write for you if I cannot even write for myself. Not even for myself. You must go now. No, I must go.

Goodbye.
