Aviators: A Fictional Narrative

Baldus study was based on more than two thousand murder cases in Georgia, and “the study found that defendants charged with killing white victims received the death penalty eleven times more often than defendants charged with killing black victims.” (Alexander p.110) Baldus Study was significant to this chapter because it shows patterns of discrimination and how the government and police enforcement use race to harass African Americans.

Flyboys: A True Story of Courage, written by James Bradley, covers some of the events during World War II that took place in the western theater of the world. The book specifically focuses on one group of men known as Flyboys, who were tasked with bombing Chichi Jima in order to try to make it possible for the United States to take the island which was impossible to take by land. The pilots Jimmy Dye, Glenn Frazier, Floyd Hall, Marve Mershon, Dick Woelhof, Grady York, Warren Earl Vaughan, and the anonymous B-24 crewman who were gunned down and parachuted onto the island were taken as prisoners of war and treated and killed in horrific ways, so much so that the government did not even tell their families the truth about what happened to them.

Charles Augustus Lindbergh, or Slim to his close friend, was a simple airmail pilot who gained world fame for his record-breaking flight across the Atlantic. He is often considered the greatest aviator of all time, and using his fame, has played a large role in the development promotion of aviation and even space travel.

He became famous for making the first solo transatlantic airplane flight in 1927. Lindbergh was born on February 4, 1902, in Detroit, Michigan.His father was Charles August Lindbergh and he was a congressman for Minnesota (“Charles Lindbergh”).

Hook- Their are plenty of famous pilots out there in the world like Charles Lindbergh or Bessie Coleman but none of them would compare to the aviator Amelia Earhart.From theories to facts no one really knows what really did happen to Amelia and her plane. So what really did happen July 2, 1937, to Amelia Earhart and her plane?

Aviator Charles Lindbergh became famous for making the first solo transatlantic airplane flight in 1927. Starting off by dropping out of college in his sophomore year, then working his

Recently, I hiked around Pilot Knob with my father and a friend. Though the view of the surrounding land was gorgeous, my attention was captivated by the knob itself. Staring upward in awe, I marveled at the unique rock structure. One area was rough and cracked from centuries of tree roots and ice expanding cracks. Another was polished smooth and curved from the wind. Reflecting back to that hike I realize that I am Pilot Knob. Over time I have been shaped and worn by various events, choices, and individuals. Some have polished my character and identity smooth. Others have chipped away at the outside. Over time a beautiful formation has emerged. Today, my thoughts and identity are formed through three aspects of my character and life, my inquisitive

“Is there anything you would like to drink?” Nyla asked. “Coffee please,” Leo said first. “Me too,” Isaac said. “Do you have any tea?” Ashlyn asked. “I would just like water please.” Hazel stated.

The rain splashed on my uniform as I ran down the street. I could hear the screams of my teammates as they were slaughtered, the screeches of the creatures hunting us, and the load roaring sounds of gunfire. I held the red flair tightly, knowing it was my only chance of survival. I neared the extraction point and could feel my breath catching in my throat. It was swarming with the weird creatures, their leathery grayish skin, long thin body and limbs, gigantic bat like wings and razor sharp dagger like claws. I saw the evac helicopter closing in and I could hear the pilot calling out over my radio. “ The landing zone Is too hot! We have to turn around!” And a last quiet, “ I’m sorry.”

“Here you go!” My thought process was broken by a warm voice, setting a two cups in front of me, one steaming, the other dripping with condensation. “Careful, it’s hot.” I grinned at him, his honey colored eyes meet my own; he winked before turning around to get back to cleaning. Eddie’s scowl was unavoidable at this point and I sighed, defeated.

Modern attachment theory, which has now shifted to a regulation theory, takes Bowlby’s original work on attachment and looks at how early experiences, such as prenatal stress, optimal/suboptimal stress, and the mother’s ability to regulate the child’s needs, help the child form an internalized working model for attachment style due to the brain being an “experience-dependent organ” (Cozolino, 2010c; J. Schore & A. Schore, 2012).

The seeds of of Macbeth’s downfall are first planted near the beginning of the play when the witches tell Macbeth that he shall be Thane of Cawdor and King (I.3.48-50). Next to Macbeth, the witches seem to hold the most responsibility for the eventual assassination of King Duncan. Had the witches not told him he would be either Thane of Cawdor or King he would not have believed that he was to become king. However, once he becomes Thane of Cawdor, he trusts that the other prophecy must also be true. The witches could have told Macbeth any forthcoming truth and that he would be king, and Macbeth still probably would have committed regicide to obtain the title of King. This is because he became confident that the witches were honest once one truth

One of civil air patrol's motto's in the cadet program is "rise to the challenge". When I first joined shortly after my 12th birthday I had NO idea what that meant. BUT over time I've learned SO much about myself and my abilities despite my age. Like most cadets...I want to use MY TIME in civil air patrol to inspire and lead...BUT--most of all I want to offer my service....to my friends , my family and my community....

Although there are many differences between immigrants and American citizens, there are ways to overcome these differences to provide a peaceful coexistence such as a children's community center and food fairs. Putnam county has a beautiful area at the city docks to hold such food fairs. Putnam County is in dire need of a community center for our children. The children have no place to go after school or on the weekends. This causes our children to hang with the wrong crowds and get into trouble. Our children need a place to feel safe and secure. I propose to open Angel Wings Children Community Center a non profit Community Center for all children no matter of race, origin or nationality. Angel Wings will use grants and donations from private donors to sustain the center.
