What a name? Operation Crocodile Smile“ if a boat capsides, sure, Crocodiles will smile cos there will be something in the offing for them to BITE.
A true soldier does not fear death, rather, he embraces it, he caress it, he fucks it.
HOWEVER, It‘s quite unfortunate to die this way. I am sending my condolences to the affected family. Wishing that they take heart and that…
THINGS CAN ONLY GET BETTER.
