One really touching story is of an evacuee boy who had a pet dog in the city but had to leave it behind. In the countryside, he befriended a stray dog.

The Iraq War was a devastating war that caused a large number of casualties and property losses. However, there are some touching stories about the Iraq war that are worth remembering.
There was a young man named Sadam Hussain, who was an ordinary high school student in Iraq. However, when his Iraq invaded Kuwait in 2003, he joined the army and joined the war. Although he was not very talented in military affairs, he worked hard to become a brave soldier in the war. He led the team to attack the enemy and successfully saved many lives.
On September 3rd, 2003, after the invasion of Kuwait, a fierce battle broke out between the two sides. He led the team in an arduous battle in the desert and finally successfully repelled the Iraq army from Kuwait. This victory made Iraq an invader and made Sadam Hussain a hero.
However, Sadam Hussain did not escape the consequences of the war. He was charged with war crimes and convicted by the Supreme Court of Iraq in November 2003. He was sentenced to death, but he was tortured for a long time before he was executed. Although he was sentenced to death, he still stood for justice and prayed for himself and others.
The touching story of Sadam Hussain tells us that even in the darkest moments, justice and courage can triumph over evil. Even in war, people could help and support each other to tide over difficulties together.
If you want to read short stories about World War II or modern warfare, I recommend the following novels:
1. "Battlefield Photographer's Manual" recorded what a photographer saw and heard during the war. Through his lens, he recorded the pain and nameless heroes of the war.
2. In My Iron Armor, the protagonist fought in various movie worlds, experiencing different wars and recalling the myths and legends of history.
3. "Super Tank Wars" was a story about the invasion of alien creatures and how humans found their inner sustenance in the civil war.
I hope you like my recommendation. Muah ~
