Sharp Shooter finally returns home after being stationed overseas for two years. Only problem is, no one really sees him as a hero, or anything positive for that matter. With no job or family, Sharp travels to Ponyville.

Oh great. Granny's playing matchmaker.
Oh, that ending...
Anyway, great work, as always!
And his flashback at a start, that reminds me of a particular Warhammer video with a comment I read about it. If you don't mind
i'd actualyl love to see sharp and pinkie develop a brother and sister relationship
A short pony from Trottingham
A pony form the wild
Thrown into combat
Were bodies lie piled
It's said war - war never changes. Men do, through the roads they walk.
Reading some parts of this chapter makes you thing of a nuclear winter (🎶 Wonderland 🎶).

She's a grandma, that is what they do. Research is ongoing, but we have yet to find a way to stop them from embarrassing us.
A war can change someone, one way or the other.

Hides his emotions
His blood is running cold
Just like his victories
His story unfolds

Bright, a white light
If there'd any glory in war
Let it rest on ponies like him
Granny's a shipper. We're all doomed.
Awesome update. Really. This chapter was powerful.

Thank you, I'm really happy with how it turned out.
Really nice chapter
Granny Smith is a passenger on board the ship we all know is about to sail?
I'm expecting her to attempt some sort of trickery to get these two to date.
This chapter provides you with the warm fuzzy feeling of wholesomeness/feelgoodness. And I like seeing Sharp getting to experience that

However... War, War Never Changes...

Dead men will never come back
...
Crosses grow on anzio
Where no soldiers sleep
And where hell's six feet deep
That death must wait
There's no debate
So charge and attack
GOING TO HELL AND BACK!!
Sharp Shooter’s got strength of the heart.
“Take up our quarrel with the foe
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch, be yours to hold it high
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields, In Flanders fields.”
I wonder if you could fit “In Flanders Fields“ in somewhere.

Its a very beautiful song. I would love to put it in, just don't know the best way.
"I spoke to God today and she said that she's ashamed
What have I become
What have I done
I spoke to the devil today and he swears he's not to blame
And I understood 'cause I feel the same
Arms wide open
I stand alone
I'm no hero and I'm not made of stone
Right or wrong
I can hardly tell
I'm on the wrong side of heaven and the righteous side of hell
The wrong side of heaven and the righteous side
The righteous side of hell
I heard from God today and she sounded just like me
What have I done and who have I become
I saw the devil today and he looked a lot like me
I looked away, I turned away
Arms wide open
I stand alone
I'm no hero and I'm not made of stone
Right or wrong
I can hardly tell
I'm on the wrong side of heaven and the righteous side of hell
The wrong side…"
- Five Finger Death Punch- Wrong Side of Heaven.
This song resonates heavily with this story, about veterans giving everything of themselves and getting nothing in return, kinda like sharp, who lost a piece of his soul in the desert and getting nothing in return. I love this version of granny. Not many ppl know that grandparents are the greatest, not just from their kindness, but from their wisdom from age, and knowledge from experience.
Good job
Can I just say how much I'm loving the way you've portrayed Granny in this story? She's been marvelous from the beginning.
I remember the start of this story, I remember talking to you about how much I loved it. And sometimes I think of how you have done so well to write this story and continue to capture how it actually feels. You have a lot of talent and with some more practice and the right drive and determination, I think that talent can give more than the users of Fimfiction happiness. Keep striving to get better man, I'm here every step of the way.
Is it disrespectful of me to want a dramatic reading of this story? I already feel immersed into this story and what all has been explained and set up thus far, I guess I feel like a dramatic reading would make it more immersive, I guess?
I'm trying to say the story is really good, like, Really frickin' good!

I'd be down for that. I've even tried in the past to direct a few dramatic readings, but like pre-war Sharp, I tend to be a bit of a dreamer so my projects have rarely gotten more than 1/2 done.
I like the idea that Granny is more than just a kooky old matriarch like in the show. Oh sure, we got snippets of her past, but it was very...unfocused, like the show was saying "yeah, obviously she has a past" but without actually getting HER experiences.
I salute Sharp for his dealing with Pinkie. Truthfully, had I been in his shoes, I don't think I could have been nearly as gracious. I don't think I'd hate her or anything, but I'd probably take more than a day to accept that her actions were borne of excitement and I would be a base liar if I tried to pretend I didn't have moments like that.
