Attackers


“We should all pray,” John told Reverend Williams. The reverend was thinking much of the same thing. He asked Major Cloud if they could have a moment to pray. 

“Just as those at the front of the march bowed their heads, and just one minute after his two-minute warning, Major Cloud gave the order to attack. A wave of state troopers charged up the bridge.”
