I Will Not Dance, Episode 03 - Deep Percussions
The Three Fifty-seven continues its commemoration to individuals who died while serving the country.
My name is William Spear and this series is titled I WILL NOT DANCE. Over four episodes, an Unnamed Service Personnel will tell of leaving family and dying in battle. Although the events are set in the Second World War, and the Narrator is from New Jersey, U.S.A, the story could be told of any conflict and the warrior could be from any country.
Previously, before shipping out, the Unnamed Service Personnel visited Family members and Friends and savored the sights, sounds, and foods of Jersey City. When those days dwindled, the Narrator realized “The time had come . . . I was now Uncle Sam’s.”
Others from all walks of Life join the Narrator as they lean hard against a north wind in Episode Three titled DEEP PERCUSSIONS.
