The Military During World War One

Saving Private Ryan was directed by Steven Spielberg in 1998. It was written by Robert Rodat, who was inspired to write a script based on a monument he had visited which was dedicated to four brothers from the American Civil War. Some famous actors star in the film including Tom Hanks, Matt Damon, Vin Diesel and Tom Sizemore. I think Saving Private Ryan is very emotional and has a great effect on the audience. This is because of all the action and emotions that the soldiers are going through in the battle, and it also shows what really happened in the . In this essay I am going to write about the four sections in the opening battle scene.

The continental army was not doing so well in the war, and when winter came around they decided to put the war on hold. The continental army built a camp called Valley Forge. In the chart The Estimates of death and Illness at Valley Forge (Doc A) in December 1777 they had about 12,000 people and in February 1778 they only had about 8,000 people. About 2,500 people died because of illnesses.

For my second journal entry, I went to the World War 1 museum. I heard of some of my peers going there and I learned that the World War 1 museum is in Kansas City, so it is close by. I am really pleased I chose this museum to go to because it was really entertaining and I learned a great deal.

There were over 16 million Americans in the armed forces, who served in the war. The infantry represented 14% of the troops overseas. Training could not have prepared them for these hardships that they faced. The shoes were in terrible conditions, the clothes were in bad shape too. The families at home were also worried about the soldiers in the army, because most of the families feared getting the news that their soldier had died in war. The soldiers were also asked to do physical work, on top of them already having to worry about fighting in war. Most of the soldiers had no education, they only hoped that the war would be over soon. The soldiers in the war had to carry everything, so they really didn´t have anything with them. The soldiers

A famous quote by Canadian Prime Minister, Mackenzie King, in World War Two is, “Conscription if necessary, but not necessarily conscription” (Persico, 199). The conscription crisis during World War One and World War Two had a negative effect on Canadian society. First of all, the Conscription Crisis of World War One, taking place between 1917 and 1918, introduced many important events for Canadian history. Furthermore, in World War Two, conscription is established yet again between 1944 and 1945. This reintroduction of conscription took place for many reasons, and led to a negative impact throughout Canada. Lastly, many people attempted to prevent conscription, such as Prime Minister McKenzie King. Therefore the conscription crisis of World War One had a negative effect on Canada.

Throughout the novel, it shows the patriotism that was built up around the First World War. A lot of young men signed up for the draft because of war propaganda glorifying the war. It depicts the war and does not cover up what occurred during battle. Instead, it gives gruesome details in what a day in the life of a soldier was like. The anti-war aspect is shown through senseless acts of violent and innocent mean killed over protecting their country. In the novel Paul kills a French soldier where he finds notes and pictures of his family. Thinking that his family will never see him again eats him up inside even though the soldier is seen as his enemy. The war becomes a long battle that what started as a huge patriotic event turned into a cause that seemed not right and useless. The only thing that gets the soldiers through the hardships they face is each other. Even when the men feel hopeless, they can turn to one another for comfort. Forming bonds with the other soldiers gives them a sense of family and normalcy in a war

World War One was a Great War involving many powers from all over the world, one of them being Great Britain. It is no surprise that when war breaks out, the daily lives of everyone change. During the period of war, daily life in England was a little bit different than daily life before the time of war. The daily life of the family, the daily life of soldiers, and the daily life of children were all affected by the outbreak of war.

Saving Private Ryan is a movie about a group of men in the army being sent to find a man after his three brothers were killed in combat. The men who were assigned to find Private James Ryan fought on Omaha Beach at the beginning of the movie and were able to take it over after facing a lot of hardships. Back in America, the people in the telegraph office realized that the mother of Private Ryan was going to receive all the telegrams of her three sons being killed on the same day. The army immediately sent out the order to find Private Ryan and bring him home safely. The army wanted to find him because they did not want another case similar to what happened to the Sullivan brothers.

Education has an importance in the world that cannot be matched. By learning new things and applying them to everyday tasks, the world has rapidly advanced over the past century. However, in the beginning of the 20th century, there were not many educational opportunities for the public, but with the help of World War I (WWI), changes were made. Even though there were not immediate impacts after World War I, the war set the stage for the development of education in the United States because women were granted more educational rights, and the government instituted programs to improve overall education.

These nations defied the coalition(central powers). The assassination at Sarajevo in bosnia immediately caused the war between Austria-Hungary and Serbia on June 28th 1914.

The First world war was significant in many ways. Technology wise, many of the weapons used in war today originated from the first world war like tanks, machine guns, and airplanes for air support. It is during the war that the British promised Palestine to the Arabs if they revolt against the Turks. At the same time, the Balfour declaration was created and it contradicts the British promise as it promised Palestine to the Jews. To this day, the land of Israel-Palestine is still being fought
