The General who Stood as a Watch

According to Mashregh News Jihad and Resistance Group, one of the Basijis of the Army 17 of Ali Ebn Abitaleb has narrated a story as follows:

During one o the nights when I was a guard, when my guarding shift was finished, I came to the rifle pit so tired and I wanted to awaken the next guard to go to his guarding post. I observed that someone was sleeping outside of the rifle pit. Since I had not slept for a long time, my mind was not working at all. I thought that the one who as sleeping there, he was the next guard.

I hit the stock of the gun to his side and I awakened him and I said: “Get up; it is your turn to guard.”?
He also stood up and he picked his gun and he thanked me and then he went to the guarding post.

Since I was so tired, I did not see his face at all.

Maybe after one hour passing from that event, the guard who needed to go to the guarding post woke me up and he said: “Why didn’t you awaken me?, you left the guarding post and came here? Where did you put the gun? If right now the guarding authority to come here, we will have nothing to say to him.”?

Since I got so surprised, I was awakened and I said: “I woke someone up last night and I thought that he was you. He picked the gun and went to the guarding post.”?

When I remembered the gun, I got so worried. I got up and went to the guarding post. I was not hopeful to see anyone in there. But I saw him. When I went to him, before identifying him, I checked my gun. I got so relaxed. I was going to say something that suddenly I looked at his face. At first I thought that I made a mistake, but soon I got sure that he was the commander of our Army ‘Mr. Mehdi Zein Al-Din’.

I could not say anything. I felt so shy and my heart wanted to stop due to this surprise. Anyways, I urged so much to satisfy Mr. Mehdi to give the gun to me and to go to rest. He resisted to finish the post and that I should go to rest.

He apparently had come back from the detection responsibility during the midnight. Since he had not wished to disturb the fighters who were sleeping in the rifle pit, he had lied down outside of the rifle pit and since he was not so lucky I had awakened him and to him to go to the guarding post.

The End
