Directions: Read Text V and answer questions 09, 10 and 11 accordingly. TEXT V Oh, I've just come from the land of the sun From a war that must be won In the name of truth With our soldiers so brave Your freedom we will save With our rifles and grenades And some help from God I want to see my family My wife and child waiting for me I've got to go home I've been so alone you see You just can't believe The joy I did receive When I finally got my leave And I was going home Oh, I flew through the sky My convictions could not lie For my country I would die And I will see it soon When I walked through the door My wife she laid upon the floor And with tears her eyes were sore I did not know why Then I looked into her hand And I saw the telegram Said that I was a brave, brave man But that I was dead (SUMMER, Bernard; GILBERT, Gillian; HOOK, Peter; MORRIS, Stephen.
