"Off our starboard side, sir!" Evan hardly acknowledged the information but was aware of it.
"Today we go to war, tomorrow to heaven." One of the more reluctant ship hands muttered and Evan gave him a smile.
Evan took a breath, "Today we war for our country, for our people, and for our families. Some or all may lose their lives today, but not in waste, never in waste. The Red Devil can't beat us even while we lay dead, unless we let him. I ask you, shall we let him?" His speach was short but his fellow crewmen got the jift of what he said.

"No we shalt." Was his reply and Evan's lips curved up.

"Then let us see what damage we can do. Men to the cannons, long distance. We'll see if we can get them down before they get close." Evan personally thought that this would not work but it was not his faith that made things happen.
