I one had a Sergeant who was from some place in Equatorial Africa.

I remember him telling me “Sir, life in Africa is hard!”

The boy, whose name was not given...

I'm guessing his name was Lunch.

I would do anything to get out of doing chores when I was his age.

It was much scarier than slasher movies.

Apparently lions don’t like heads either.

Poor kid.

I wonder what he was guarding the crops from...

That is so crazy, poor guy.

It’s astonishing how so much of the world is still 100 years ago, what strange times.

This is what happens when you forget to fill the bowl before going to bed!

Its gotta be horrible, being eaten alive. I can think of dozens of other ways I’d rather die.

We can only wish this had happened to some yuts in Kenya back in the 70s.

The Shadow and the Darkness

That is "The Ghost and the Darkness".

...They were sleeping in the field guarding...

Sleeping on guard duty usually has consequences.

First thing I thought of, too.

Sad news.
