Ulysses S grant was the 18 president of the United States in the year 1869-1877. Was the commander of the civil war and worked closely with President Lincoln. He wanted to reconstruct the US although he was at many times knocking heads with Andrew Johnson because they both had different minds but Grant led the Republicans to better times and helped free black people and give them their rights like whites have. Many people were not happy with what Grant was doing and so in the second part of his term he led the US into depression. In 1843 Grant was training in a US military academy of west point and he had served in the Mexican American war he had retired for a while but was have a tough times living a civilian life and when the civil war started

     Another side arm that was popular among the Union forces was the Starr Revolver. The .44 caliber six shot weighed almost three pounds and could be shot multiple ways. The Starr could use a combustible cartridge or could be fired by use of loose gun powder and ball. The government threatened the company (Starr) by saying they were going to move to a cheaper model of sidearm if the weapons price did not reside. Starr complied and began manufacturing the weapon for twelve dollars; the Union forces purchased 25,000 of these revolvers.

On February 25, 1932, the Army Chief of Staff, General Douglas MacArthur, put an end to the caliber issue, stating "this change will introduce an element of chaos, confusion and uncertainty which, when magnified under war conditions, would more than counteract the beneficial effect of any semi-automatic rifle." With this statement, MacArthur ordered the development of a .30 caliber rifle. This did not delay Garand's work because he had already developed a design to fire the .30 caliber on his own time in anticipation of such an event. Two more years would pass before the rifle was adopted as the United States Rifle, M1 on January 9, 1936. The United States became the first country in history to adopt a semi-automatic rifle as its standard military rifle after this event. Problems beset the M1 as it was first being issued. They occurred in the area where expanding gases of the fired bullets were tapped from the barrel to operate the rifle and the rifle suffered stoppages after firing only seven of the eight rounds in its clip.

Ott et al. find that CFM has a “near-total absence of reflection on the role of firearms in society” (Ott et al., 2015, p.219) and is “focusing on the presentation of firearms using an aesthetic of domestication and sterility” (Ott et al., 2015, p.217). Including the Coors Video Theatre, the hunting lodge, the frontier stage stop, and The Browning Gallery, none of these are showing the violence and reality side of the weapon. The way CFM describes guns as “necessary tools, commonplace commodities, and innovative technologies in nineteenth-century America is not historically inaccurate, just highly selective” (Ott et al., 2015, p.222). They also mention taxonomy and “the manner in which they (guns) are arrayed and hung” (Ott et al., 2015, p.225). The authors called these as “artistic arrangement”, which means, “the guns purified of violence, death, and war” (Ott et al., 2015, p.226).

The first guns used in America were a simple machine where the person did most of the work. The user measured and put the powder

I find myself one of George Washington’s soldiers fighting for the rebels at Valley Forge. Valley Forge is a hard place to live and especially fight, but something’s make more of an impact than other things here. One is that our hearts are constantly filled with smoke and our eyes are constantly affected by this. Another is a sickness, we have thousands of men sick here and many have already died. And one of the main things is that we are running very low on meat and quality food and we are eating low protein food. But despite those things I still have a hard decision to make soon I will have to decide to reenlist or not and go home to my family. I believe that I will reenlist for three reasons which are I need to provide for my family and

"Battleground America," written by Jill Lepore, provides a strong history of guns and the way they have changed in the eyes of the American through the years. She proves her point with strong evidence throughout her article, sprinkling it with opinion and argument that is strongly supported. She presents her argument to convince her audience that the open availability of guns allows citizens to undeservingly purchase them by displaying the credibility in her sources, using negative connotations in her speech, and the strength and objectivity only a strong logos appeal can provide.

The Gatling gun is the first gun invented in America by Richard J. Gatling: his brilliant idea became a great success when the Gatling gun is confirmed for the civil war. This weapon comes in different forms, but fires the same amount for the gun. Sometimes they stop firing to change the fire angle or to check of there is a bullet container stuck inside the gun as a mount function.

As E. D. White's mission statement says, our school's purpose is to "impart the Catholic faith, promote academic excellence, and enhance self-esteem." By living out this mission statement, E. D. White becomes a strong-knit community of faith, knowledge, and service. Ever since my first day of eighth grade these qualities have been evident through the students and faculty of E. D. White. Every morning when I arrive at school there is a teacher there telling everyone good morning and to have a good day. This simple gesture can brighten someone's day significantly.

In order to answer these question many woman have to find ways to negotiate success in a professional food service environment that disproportionally outnumbers them. There is a gap in the industry, where women are considered a minority and earn less than male counterparts. Men entering the professional kitchens did not alleviate women’s responsibilities in the domestic kitchen, we still see a rather predominant ideal of traditional female roles and responsibilities. Nowadays, there still happens to be some taboos about the role of men in the kitchens, making them seem less obviously masculine while performing cooking tasks, to ensure any observer that food preparation did not make them woman-like in some way.

I have had guns in my life since I was young. I served eight years in the military, and have shot in competitions for many years. I also love the outdoors, and enjoy the ability to put food on the table that is natural. I think the reasons for keeping the right to bear arms are so important that if the American people lost that right; it would mean life changes that many would be unwilling to make.

Maybe their name was Janice. Or perhaps they preferred a more neutral name like Tyler or Sam. Sometimes they were people and other times they were magical animal hybrids with superpowers. Nonetheless, whatever their species, whatever their name was, almost everyone had an imaginary friend. Imaginary friends however, are often outgrown and for the most part, forgotten. Authors have special relationships with their characters. They channel their hopes and dreams into a fictional entity and this allows them to live one thousand lives the way they wish they could. One example of this is in Ernest Hemingway’s novel, A Farewell To Arms. The brave World War One ambulance driver, Frederic Henry, shares many traits with the esteemed author. It’s
