Mr. Walsh discusses, in general, the anonymity of soldiers who fall during the heat of battle, but after losing two close friends, his reluctance to make new ones.
Transcription
You didn’t know who you lost or how many you lost. You more or less consolidate. Either you, you either reached your objective or you didn’t. You were stopped before then. You dug in and I seen us digging in as high as four times a day just getting yards at a time, that’s all we were getting. You had to dig in and take shelter and you were out in the wheat fields and you were always vulnerable to everything that was coming down. That was a rough part of it. I kind of become friends with the fellow that I was with but he didn’t last long. I lost him and a couple of days later I lost another one and from then on you just didn’t make no more friends.
