    Thank You :)

    yes, the poet was prior military but not a turret gunner, he may have had friends or knew other service members who died as turret gunners.

  • @XXFortressCraftedXX as sarahsimagination says, he wrote it before he died. He was writing about another man (or men) who died in the ball turret.  He is using poetic license when he uses "I."

  • @XXFortressCraftedXX

    He wrote this poem before he died and many poets wrote poems before they died

  • @MsWLZ How could this man write this if it says he died

  • You did a great job. The images not only lend poignancy to the poem, but allow the reader to draw visual images. I tried to link this to my lecture, but Youtube seems to be malfunctioning.
