Fighting in the Dark (The Diary of a Cancer Survivor)

I am standing on the Afgani border in the dark without any detection or sensor equipment.

It is the middle of the night and I can't see or hear my enemy -- I am blind to his whereabouts.

When will he strike, and where? From which direction and what kind of artillery will he use?

So many questions, so many options . . . I am terrified.

Yet somehow I struggle through the darkness and the enemy has not struck me again.
