Ironclads revolutionized naval warfare all around the world, while in other places they were used to ferry goods from one place to another, this country sought out to build iron plated war machines. The 3 main vessels I chose to go over is the USS Monitor, the CSS Virginia, and the CSS Hunley. In my opinion, these naval vehicles stand out the most to me.

This makes me feel the image of war is more real, the seriousness of war comes to life in this poem, that the people in wartime really do get hurt.
