WW1 Memorial Site Analysis

The graves of many famous people are at Arlington Nationel Cemetary. It did not start out that way. In 1861, a Confederate General and his wife owned the house and the land. That General was Robert E. Lee. His house was across the river from Washington, D.C. The Union Army took over the land at the start of the Civil War. Union soldiers that were killed in the war was buried near the house. These soldiers were poor. Their families could not pay for them to be buried. Arlington was called a "potter's field." A potters field is a place where poor or unknown people are buried. After the war, something odd started to happen. Union officers asked to be buried at Arlington. They wanted to be near those men who had been in the war with them. Americans

The men in the First Canadian Division were easy to connect with mama. Lots of them were farmers, factory workers and business owners just like our family members. In Valcartier, I met Riley during our four week training. We were buddies during our winter training in Salisbury Plain too. In Salisbury Plain, we learned basic military skills such as shooting and aiming. Riley was surprised of the little instruction of trench warfare though. Like the words on the propaganda posters, he was eager on "becoming a man."

Birkenau). That’s enough to send chills down anyone's spine. The death camps of WWII were an atrocity to all human beings, regardless of race, religion, and culture.

Knowing that in the movie the only thing separation the boy in the striped pajamas from the outside world was the barbed wire fence. The photo makes me think of how miserable everyone inside these camps were. They want so badly to escape that they kill themselves or do something that they know the Nazis would not accept just so they

At first many media sources tried to spin the torture of the prisoners as actions similar to hazing rituals. Other people viewed the photographs as normal within the

Another reason we study the holacaust is to remember the cruelty that went on inside of the camps. I almost wish people could have documented the thhings that went one within the camps that they belonged to. Although, I believe if we could see those things, the sick, awful things that went one in the concentration camps, we would not believe what cruelties could be done to human beings. It disgusts me to my core, all of the things that happened in the camps. First you were stripped of your identity, shaven head, given away items of

I am and SS officer. I was stationed at Auschwitz. More Jews were coming in every day. There were eighty to a cattle cart. There were so many families that had to go separate ways from one another. I had killed mothers and the babies and weakest of the men that couldn’t work. It was horrible, I do say. If I could say no I would never do it again. I loved my country and Hitler at the time, so I was willing to do whatever it took to get noticed. I was then stationed at a woman’s concentration camp. They all had gotten shaved, had no gold teeth, and had had tattoos on their arms. It was their identification code. They were so skinny it was just skin stuck to the bones. They looked like corpses, but alive. I wonder how many died soon after.

In the history of literature, there have always been different themes and genres of writing. But few have been as different or unique as that of the “gothic” literature. Of all the gothic authors of history, few writing has captured the mind and plunged it into the depths of fear as that of Edgar Allen Poe. Poe’s “The Cask of Amontillado,” is a story that shows us how deadly being prideful can be. Themes of dishonour, revenge and questionable justice all come together in this story. In this essay, I will discuss how the setting, irony and the lack of certain details all contribute to the gothic theme and the spine-tingling effect of the story.

Eighteen million Europeans went through the Nazi concentration camps. Eleven million of them died, almost half of them at Auschwitz alone.1 Concentration camps are a revolting and embarrassing part of the world’s history. There is no doubt that concentration camps are a dark and depressing topic. Despite this, it is a subject that needs to be brought out into the open. The world needs to be educated on the tragedies of the concentration camps to prevent the reoccurrence of the Holocaust. Hitler’s camps imprisoned, tortured, and killed millions of Jews for over five years. Life in the Nazi concentration camps was full of terror and death for its individual prisoners as well as the entire Jewish

During the Holocaust, people in the Nazi’s custody were treated as less than human. According to “Jakob’s Story”, the Nazi’s gave their prisoners little food and only one meal a day. Jakob writes “we ate one meal a day and it consisted of soup with potato peels; scraps of food from the SS” (Blankitny, paragraph 17). Here one can see that the Nazi’s looked down upon their prisoners and treated them as less than

The issue that I am prevailing is that college students are some of the hardest working people in todays society, we are dedicated to achieve our goals to have a great future ahead of us. When a student says there are busy, that most likely means that they do indeed have a good amount of school work to do. One of the articles that helps support my argument is “Researchers have worked out which majors work the hardest in college”(The Tab). The hardest working major according to this article is architecture, working and studying 22 hours a week outside of the classroom. The second is the engineering major, while architect work 22 hours a week this major puts in about 20 hours a week out of class. These majors all definitely include required studying, writing, reading, doing home work or lab work. These majors have been decided through a national survey taken by students.
