Meeting Arthur Currie

When I met Arthur Currie It was near the end of the war he was there to congratulate us about our victory because he heard that the triple alliance was running out of resources and that they will be surrendering soon. When we lined up to meet him everyone was dead silent. We saw him come up the hill on horse back with the cavalry the amount of prestige that he carried with him while riding his horse. He looked so brave and fearless like if he was facing 100 German troops he could kill them all within seconds. As he left his horse he saluted our lieutanant and then went down the line to shake our hands and congratulate us. When he got to me I shook his hand and he smiled and moved on, even though it was just a two second meeting of Currie I was amazed at the amount of excitement I got the way he carried himself gave me the energy to pick myself up and continue on this war. When he was done congratulating us he made a short but admiring speech about honour and commitment and how we will be celebrated after the war. And as he left back with his cavalry we were cheering at the though of this war almost being over and us being able to go home.
