Interview With Men In War

From the earliest times, war has existed as a painful reality. Stories are passed down from generation to generation about brave men fighting epic battles in ancient civilizations. Occasionally a different type of legend emerges: the homefront hero. Leaders in Ancient Greece and Rome are documented preventing panic and raising supplies for their distant armies. From then on through history, those left behind, from the leaders of countries tested in resolve and commitment by wars to the ordinary citizens who rise above their routines to serve their countries, are powerful forces behind victories. World War II was no exception. While the soldiers abroad were undoubtedly true heroes of the war, the parents, siblings, and children they left behind also assisted in the war effort. No one remained truly unaffected by the war. Without the labors of women, the efforts of schoolchildren, and the institution of rationing, World War II could not have been won.

As you know I am writing to you from the trenches of the western front in France. The United States of America joined this heinous war in the spring of nineteen hundred seventeen. We joined the fight because of the sinking of the Lusitania and when the German Kiaser sent the note to Mexico to convince them to put themselves against us to assure we will not go to war in Europe. That did not go through because the economic condition of Mexico is not that good enough to fight in a war with the United States.

Through history, the United States has participated in many significant events, such as the infamous Civil War, World War I and II, and the Cold War. In the same manner, the United States has been in many conflicts with the Middle East. For instance, the Gulf War where, we, the United States, liberated the Saudi Arabian country Kuwait from the dictator Saddam Hussein; however, he is in command of one of the most powerful armies in the globe (Operation). Even though this conflict only lasted for months, America had overcome a milestone. So many military personnel have participated in this conflict and all have different stories as well as perspectives. Whether the veteran was on the front line or working behind the scenes,

A true war story is rather difficult, if not impossible, to share when it goes beyond one’s imagination. Regarding such a story, one morally sound aspect about it is that it lacks morality or meaning to it. Extracting facts from a true war story is a daunting task because what seems to happen is what actually occurs. In what is to follow, I will tell one awful true war story.

From the earliest times, war has existed as a painful reality. Stories are passed down from generation to generation about brave men fighting epic battles in ancient civilizations. Occasionally a different type of legend emerges: the homefront hero. In Ancient Greece and Rome, elderly statesmen prevented famine and raised supplies for their distant armies in wartime. From then on through history, those left behind, from the leaders of countries tested in resolve and commitment by wars to the ordinary citizens who rise above their routines to serve their countries, are powerful forces behind victories. World War II was no exception. While the soldiers abroad were undoubtedly true heroes of the war, the parents, siblings, and children they left behind also assisted in the war effort. No one remained truly unaffected by the war. Without the labors of women, the efforts of schoolchildren, and the institution of rationing, World War II could not have been won.

The term “war” is a scary word that brings terrible memories especially to the families that lost someone on WWII, and left many with mental and physical scars. Even though seventy-two years had pass, we can still see the impact that this war left not just in the United State but the rest of the world. This war is know as the “Good War” because despite all the destruction it caused it actually brought positive changes in America that still effect us today.

The war had took a toll through the people's lives, they weren't capable of going back to the life they were at before they had witnessed people being killed. The war had took away their innocence and changed their lives dramatically. The men had went into the war without even knowing what they were getting themselves into. They saw war as people

War affects everyone. From the families of those who died to the man and woman who made it home. In World War 1 alone seventeen million people died. Most of the soldiers who survived came back with either lifelong scars, insanity or missing a phew limbs. We must remember them, our enemies, our allies, our friends. For all made the ultimate

“The Things They Carried” is a story based on the soldiers’ experiences in the Vietnam War and their experiences after the war. The story begins with a character named Jimmy Cross, who is the Lieutenant of the Alpha Company. Jimmy Cross carries letters from a girl named Martha, who he dated before he joined the army. He also carries her good luck pebble in his mouth. The narrator later describes items the other soldiers in the Company are carrying. Some of the items were insect repellant, knives, and chewing gum. The items the soldiers had carried were based on their priorities. For instance, Henry Dobbins carried his girlfriend panty hose since he was superstitious. Ted Lavender carried tranquilizer pills to keep himself calm and Kiowa carried the New Testament to show his religious beliefs. The items that they carried were also based by their rank and what they specialized in. For example, Lieutenant Cross carried maps and the lives of the soldiers, due to his rank. Rat Kiley carried supplies for serious wounds, malaria tablets, and morphine since he was the medic.

During war, our fears scared us to death. They wouldn’t let us sleep. However, these difficult times encouraged us to be brave? All the sacrifices we made taught us to be noble and strong. It has taught us that we must act like soldiers everyday to protect our nation. And I can proudly say each and every one of else was a soldier. It is not until in the midst of conflict do our lives and who we are become apparent. We have achieved meaning, purpose and a reason for living, and for that I can definitely say the war was worth

World War 2 was the most bloody, significant, and globally active war in the history of mankind. Historians even recount the war being one of the “Most devastating international conflict in history” (History.com, 2009). The war had taken place for 5 years, killing millions of people, citizens, and soldiers. There came many challenges with this war, but with heart and determination, the allies (the allies were the group of countries fighting back against the Nazi’s) somehow came back to win the war in the end. The soldiers in the war endured many challenges in this war, they made many personal sacrifices, which has led to many positive outcomes.
