The year is 1916, Ireland and England are in war.
Paddy is a 27-year-old man. He used to work in his family bakery before the war rolled around. He decided to become a soldier and fight for the war. At first, he was only guarding the base camp. But after he risked his life to save another soldier he was promoted.
One morning Paddy was woken by the sound of a bell ringing. This signaled to go to the General’s office. When he got there the general told the soldiers that they were surrounded.
A plan came to Paddy’s mind so he told the General. “It doesn’t matter what you think, does it?” he growled. Later they were defeated and taken prisoner.
I feel if they took on Paddy’s Plan they might have escaped!
A great story Colin – well done!
