If I were a solider the possession I would carry would be most similar to the notes that were carried. I would be carrying something that was representative of my family and loved ones at home. I would carry a picture of my family and maybe some letters from my loved ones back home. I feel like in a war type situation, almost everything is taken from you. I could not do this without knowing I had the support of my family back home. To have the access to look at a picture of them and see their happiness would be the closest thing to home I could obtain during the war. I would know that I am fighting for them and I was in the war in their honor. Seeing their faces would be the only motivation I could think of. It would also be nice to have some words that have been written from them to me. It would be reassuring to look at the notes and see how much they loved me and how cared for I was. It would be nice to know I was being missed as much as I was missing them. I don’t think I could personally make it that long without my family especially knowing I could ultimately never see them again. These few items would be the closest I could get to them and therefore that is why I would be carrying them.
