D-DAY SHELL NOT NORMAL MOVING AROUND THEN VANISH

It was the 6th of june 1945,D-Day i had the misfortune to be one of the first rifle companys to land on the beaches of normandy it was about an hour after we landed i was hiding in a building armed with only a rifle and pistol (i was an officer) we set up a machine gun (GPMG) and started shooting at the Germans whilst ((name deleted--soldier #1), (soldier #2), and (soldier #3) were all shooting out the windows i decided to go upstairs for a better aim and thats when i saw what at that moment i thought was an artillary shell but then it stoped in mid air and started moving around as i focused on the "shell" i was shot by a german sniper and taken to hospital in dover which i guess was a good thing in the end because later my company ended up spearheading the next operation in which only 24 people suvived.
