                    The soldier regrets: 
                      his undone years; i.e.  his lost years;his lost opportunity of  experiencing love and making people laugh;his failure to fulfil  his life’s aspiration of changing the world through honest  labour and humane deeds; 
                      that men will continue  to agonize and fight each other continually; that  he has no other option now, but to rest; etc.  
Most of the  candidates attempted the question and their performance was fair.
