A doctor gave him a cursory examination, dressed his cut with sulfa powder, and left him alone until the next morningMinetta felt weak and comfortableHe was suffering to a slight extent from shock, just enough to make him lassitudinous, but it kept him from thinking about the surprise and pain he had felt when the bullet had struck himIt was the first night in six weeks he had been able to sleep without being awakened for guard and the cot felt soft and luxurious in comparison to bedding on the groundHe awakened alert and cheerfulHe played checkers with one of the men in his tent until the doctor cameThere were only a few patients, and Minetta had a pleasant vague memory of talking to them the night before in the darknessThis is okay, Minetta |
