If you are a football fan, then you will understand when I say there are so many good NFL players today. There is new talent added to the mix all the time. Devonta Freeman is one of those stars. He was drafted in 2014 to the Atlanta Falcons and he had a great rookie year. As his time with the Falcons goes on, his play making, and experience are improving and he looks like he's going to be a big factor in the NFL. He did not get where he is now easy though, in fact it was tough for him. His perseverance on the field is probably because of the perseverance he had to have growing up.

“Nothing, they never did. And heed my warning, a few years after my son disappeared, a wealthy attorney from Chicago, by the name of Wendell Gladfree, who was himself an adventur-ist, started petitioning the park fathers. Gladfree wanted them to release pertinent information about scores, I’m talking about scores of people who went missing in the park from 1920 to 1969. I met Gladfree myself and got to know him well. For a while, I thought he might be the one to crack the code of silence. And believe it or not, the fathers were court ordered to produce certain documents and things for

Once the questioned had been asked about where his wear about during the event of Pearl Harbor. Mike was walking out the gate of Fort Deven up in Massachusetts with a 30 day pass in the pocket.

Sam Siatta’s experience fully includes the heroic archetypal journey, in which his physical and emotional skills are tested not just along the battlelines, but at home, too. C.J. Chivers, the author of “The Fighter,” illustrates the physical and emotional costs which Siatta endured--primarily focusing on the initiation and return parts from his journey. With variations, however so slight in representing the archetypal journey, “On the Rainy River,” and “Speaking of Courage” by Tim O’Brien, and “Slaughterhouse-Five, by Kurt Vonnegut, support and refute Siatta’s experience, and their characters comparatively represent the physical and emotional hardships Siatta endured throughout all three stages in his journey. A stark difference exists between Sam Siatta from “The Fighter,” and Tim O’Brien from “On the Rainy River.”

The story was about the time when he found out that he had to go to the war, however, he didn't want to go to it, so he decided to leave the United States. He stated his feelings about the war by saying, “I was no soldier” (41), to show that he knew nothing about it. The way he was raised didn't expose him to the types of things that he’d face in war. In addition, he had a whole future ahead of him due to how well he had done in school. He went on to say that he remembered “the rage in [his] stomach” (42), which showed the feelings of unease that he felt.

He was only sixteen so he had to fake his birth certificate so he could enlist. While in the Navy, Jerry got a lot of education he never got when he lived with his parents, and got a lot of training. He went to military and contractor schools, which helped him learn a lot, but that was not enough for young Jerry. Jerry was a Petty Officer 2nd Class and an aircraft engine mechanic while in the Navy. Three months before his three year contract ended with the Navy, the Korean War began, so Jerry could not be discharged. This led to him reenlisting in the Navy for another six years. After the time he served in the Navy, someone suggested he go to the Air Force.His brother suggested he go to San Antonio, Texas. While in the Air force, Jerry was in the tech services for five years, and he also was very interested in airplanes. He served in the Air Force for eleven years, and then retired at the age of 36 as a Senior Master Sergeant.. Which is pretty impressive I think because he explained to us that a Senior Master Sergeant as being a higher rank than Master Sergeant, but not the highest rank one can receive. A Senior Master Sergeant is the fourth Non-Commissioned Officer rank in the Air

In fact, Frank Lavin even describes the young boys in Carl’s high school as all wanting “to be part of the action” (Lavin, 9). Even though Carl’s parents were reluctant to his idea of joining in on the fighting, Carl eagerness got the better of him, and he was off to join the Enlisted Reserve Corps (ERC) the first chance he got (Lavin, 11). Being a volunteer was something that Lavin took pride in for the remainder of his life. By joining the ERC, Carl felt as if he was fulfilling his duty, both to his country and to himself. Like Lavin, many other soldiers felt inclined to serve in the military; this included all the veterans interviewed from the Big Red One unit. One particular veteran shares how he felt called to protect America’s democracy and that he believed the sacrifices he made for our country were worth it in the end (“Echoes,” 53:01). Another veteran responded that fighting in the war was the “job to fulfill,” and he felt he was the one to fulfill it (“Echoes,” 53:47). From volunteers to draftsmen, many soldiers would agree that in the end, fighting to protect the freedoms of our country was a duty that they felt honored to carry
