John’s Journey

PRIVATE JOHN WRAY (20s) is sheltering from artillery shells in a WW1 British trench when the SERGEANT (30s) tells him the Commanding Officer wants to see him.
The COMMANDING OFFICER (30s) orders John to go to Headquarters with a letter. He also orders John to take two men with him.
The Sergeant orders PRIVATES WALSH AND WHITE (20s) to go with John. He also puts John in charge of the group.
Shortly after, in conversation, John mentions to Privates Walsh and White his German friend Hans, whom he went to Cambridge University with. He confirms that he hasn’t seen him since the outbreak of the war.
