We were flying and bombarding the city of Leghorn, when flak starts coming out of nowhere. We were hit heavily, and even worse, Yossarian was hit. He started bleeding from his thigh, and soon blood was expanding all over his body. Even though he yelled at Captain Aardvark (Aarfy) to help him, Aarfy pretended that he didn't hear Yossarian and left him to bleed. They got into a conflict, which made Yossarian faint. I quickly attended to him, giving him morphine whenever he moaned. After a long time, Yossarian woke up and asked,"Who's minding the store?". Thankful that he was alive, I told him of how worried Nately was, how he thought Yossarian was dead because of his cut artery. When Yossarian started whining for more morphine, I gave him despite the restrictions. We finally took him to the hospital. That was one of the most frightening situations that I had ever been in. I'm glad it ended rather well.
