What mighty update could you expect from me ?
"Gegner panzer einheiten sind eingetroffen, volle deckung!" I shout to my comrades. Not even their armour can break our defences, well actually tank crews say that street fighting is a nightmare and dangerous. We open fire on individual targets while the machineguns suppress the enemy so they can't throw grenades at us. "Hans, get the panzerfausts out, we need to knock out their armour!" requests Johann-Georg, and then I cover them, by making myself the target rather than them. Now, our mortars open fire with their 60mm HE shells, which burst all around us. We need to keep our mouths open to enable the sound to effect the mouth and the ears equally so we don't go deaf. The americans are getting demoralized. "Give me one!" I order and then I fire on the Sherman tanks' turret. Direct Hit! It hits the ammunition and it explodes making an inferno of fire, while the turret jumps into the air, and then after the dust clears all we can see is a turretless tank burning.
Then, their tanks attempt to pull back and the infantry they have left get decimated, and they are annihiliated trying to retreat. I say that we put up fierce resistance, throwing back that assault. Once the enemy was either dead or had left our view, we had to reorganise our positions and then came the honours. Unfortunately, I didn't get a medal, but I guess it doesn't matter too much. No increase in rations for our efforts either, but I feel proud.

Good AAR. Don't get discouraged by the lack of comments your AAR gets way than mine, and I update more than you do, and my updates are longer which proves you are doing good. My parents never read mine, heck they don't even know I am on here half the time. 
3 weeks and i'm not even past the first page...
I know, i've been a lazy slob, but after this update there will be no more until school starts again, because I write it during school time at home.

It's the type of AAR I think, normally I don't read such AARs as this one but it has short updates (although not many ) and it reads swiftly.
I hate it when you see 50 lines of pure text, it's very boring imo if that happens.
Just keep writing

Alright, next update coming up then!
"Herr Oberschütze, ist alle gut?" I asked him. "Das schlacht ist 1 stunde, aber oder einen sind für tage!" He replied. I don't know, I felt a bit bad, I feel like I exaggerated the battle when I think of the long battles Dietrich spoke of.
June 9, 1944. Today, a detachment of 3 assault guns arrived, one StuH 42, 105mm) (Sturmhaubitze 1942) and two StuG IV's, 75mm (with Schurzen applied). We at first thought it was part of a large armoured force, but then our hopes diminished at 0730, another three gours and nothing came. WE know that all forces move by night so it would be another day of intense fighting to come up. After our victory a few days before, we started to slacken feeling the invincibility we had when we joined up. We thought after putting up fierce resistance the day before, that now we had tanks we could punch with an armoured fist through back to the beaches. At 1330 their second attack opened at a greater strength...*
A picture would be helpful to give me of soldiers relaxing in a village.

Babel-Fish has slaughters the languages once more.
No matter which one you used: you'd better avoid such translators in the future, it's terrible to see my language torn apart
Walter Model said:Oh, ok, and btw I did NOT use babelfish, I used my own bad german
Ah, just go on with it since I use my own version of English from time to time!
Alright, this will be the final update until at least September.
We were caught unprepared so we had to hurry to our positions. The sky blackened a little as shells exploded in it, due to lack of range from the tanks, ours and the american ones. It gets very uncomfortable because I wasn;t used to this kind of combat. Machineguns open fire, this time from the Church and the Chateau to prevent us being too predictable. Unfortunately, because there is quite a distance between us and the allies, only tanks can shoot, from their primary armament and the MGs to shoot because they have height difference. They shoot all over the bocage, to make our forces look more numerous. This intimidates the advancing infantry, but increases our spirit so we get ready for them to get closer and for the fierce street fighting to begin again ...

to bad your quiting this AAR
It's not because people don't post, they don't read it ...
It is just so infuriating to see some new recruit here get theirs about 5 pages in 6 weeks, but then with mine i'm only on page 2 at the moment, so it isn't enjoyable much more, but I guess if I continue the story then I will ...
You have said you're playing a the German '44 scenario so maybe you can tell about the game, only the major parts of it and go in detail on Konrad Schmidt his actions and his Division.
And btw many there are many AAR's here so you need to keep it on the first page or nobody will notice it, hence even I forgot about your AAR till you posted again this day.

Read the other page and you will find that I stopped playing '44 and focussed on the story.
Perhaps I should continue the story in this bit of summer holiday so I spark up some more interest...

Just look, this guy joined in May and the first bit is posted 1 hour ago and 6 (!!) replies! I feel like nobody wants to read my AARs.

I know you stopped with the '44 scenario but restart the scenario again.
The more items where you can talk about the easier you're writing will go.
If you write about a game ( or the war in general ) and about Konrad more people will read it because you have a story for the story-lovers and some will read because they want to know how your doing ingame.
