He didn't stretch the whole truth so instead of telling the young wondrous child," Yes honey, I've killed a man" , he will await for her to yet again ask this dreadful question at a more mature age. He didn't want to kill the soldier, but though scare him into a fearful scatter. It was to late to cock back the grenade pin and start over, so the body of the unannounced soldier fell heavily do the death that wasn't good to be true.
