R - Indian General in the British military A - Indian Soldiers F - Journal T - After the war

Dear my soldiers,

You have fought very well in the battles. I am very proud of you. You followed my instructions very well, which is very crucial in any battles. Although the conditions were very unpleasant and harsh, you put up with it very well without any complains. By now you’ve probably realized how horrible and harsh war is. I wish you’ve learned a lesson in this because where ever you are and whatever happens to you, there is no place worse than a real war battle scene. What I’m trying to say is that be thankful to your life and reality, because there’s nothing worse than this. And be proud of yourself, as you have survived through this. Be proud of yourself for contributing in getting our rights and freedom for our beloved country, India. That’s what we all have been fighting for. The British have promised our rights and freedom if we helped in the war. However, how foolish we are to trust them! They are not keeping the promise! Then what have we been fighting for? We were just fooled by the British. Soldiers, there is nothing that we can do about this. The British has power over us, and we cannot overpower them. However, do not be disappointed, do not be sad, do not be mad, do not be shamed. We were always truthful to ourselves, and that’s all it matters. As long as God is alive, he will pity us and punish the British. Let’s all leave it up to God. One day, we will earn our freedom, we will earn our rights. We will always be truthful to ourselves and our country. Soldiers, have hope! We will go through this together! We are India!
