World War 1 CYOA

[Hickory]

You realize that this is a good chance to perform observation on the enemy lines, while they are preoccupied dealing with the retreating British/Australian raiding team. The thunder of artillery is still heard, but the accompanying explosions grow farther and farther off. You grab your SMLE and wipe some of the mud off. Perhaps some of your soldiers survived the bombardment...

No mans' land is full of chunks of metal, barbed wire emplacements, and countless trenches interrupted by artillery craters. And, naturally, bodies. Lots of bodies.

One of them twitches as you walk by, and you cautiously kneel down by it. A few prods with the bayonet on your rifle prompts it to roll over, revealing the face of George.

"George?" you ask.

George coughs up a little bit of blood, and you immediately drop your rifle to prop him up against a chunk of concrete. "Wilson," he grunts, clearly in substantial pain. "Shrapnel. Left side of my chest."

You pull aside his jacket, revealing the metal in his chest.

Attempt to remove the shrapnel.
Leave George to die.
Put George out of his misery.
Other (specify).

Wilson's inventory

P08 Luger. (three clips, 1 clip (6 bullets) loaded.)

Since removing things makes it more likely for the person to bleed out, give Geroge a cigarette. >: )
