I've been in Malton for some time now, but too caught up in the day to day survival to worry about recording my thoughts.  I don't know what the REMFs think they are doing, the situation here is FUBAR.  New troops seem to be arriving every day, most of them so screwed up they barely know which end of a pistol to point at the Zeds.  The rate at which the units get chewed up and spat up is insane - somebody needs to tell command that throwing men at the problem is only giving the Zeds new recruits.  It's almost as if somebody in the CoC *wants* the dead to break out of Malton.
Another forgoes even the taste of living flesh, instead choosing to use the last of its energy to groan and scream loudly, letting its fellows-in-death know that this place is full of unprotected food.


As a result, there are several of us here - US troops who have barely finished basic training.  It's a hell of a way to gain combat experience, and the attrition rate is appalling, but those who survive for a few days soon develop the skills that Basic never gives you.
Each zombie gives a little of itself, knowing that the ultimate reward - the succulent flesh of the living - will not be granted to it, but to one that follows after, some nameless, lifeless stranger.


Unfortunately, those same troops tend to go native.  There are few attempts to get organised.  I'm considering trying to get together a small group of ex-military types like myself with similar levels of combat experience.  Low level scouts, privates, and field medics who, whilst pissed at the CoC might still have enough of the basic soldier-to-soldier loyalty to form a solid core of survivors.  Not sure how to go about recruiting, though - I've been making a few notes of those that seem to fit the bill but contacting them again is almost a matter of pure luck.
That, my friends, is Barhah.
 
Gotta go.  Something is scratching at the barricades.

What is Barhah?

The zombie scrabbles at the barricade, knowing that it shall have exhausted its energy long before the barricade falls.

Another finishes off what its brother-in-death has started, despite knowing that even with the collapse of the barricade it shall be unable to open the doors.

Another arrives, a scabrous hand groping for the door-handles, and pushes its way into the building even though it knows in its primitive brain that is has not the strength to feed.

Behind it comes another, biting and clawing at the living, knowing that a hail of bullets will cause it to fall before it can feast.

Another forgoes even the taste of living flesh, instead choosing to use the last of its energy to groan and scream loudly, letting its fellows-in-death know that this place is full of unprotected food.

Each zombie gives a little of itself, knowing that the ultimate reward - the succulent flesh of the living - will not be granted to it, but to one that follows after, some nameless, lifeless stranger.

That, my friends, is Barhah.
