As the clock ticks down and with weapons ready I get ready to sprint to the nearest tank. 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, Go! The buzzer sounds and we are all running to get to our favorite vehicle, mine the tank. I get into the tank and begin to cruise towards the center of the map stopping in the village to capture our base. I continue towards the bridge gunshots baze from the bridge I scope in and see a anti air tank and open fire the pilot dismounts and tries to make a run for it he gets halfway off the bridge when a blast from a chopper nails him, and so I continued on …show more content…

“Are you ok?” her voice rung through the air like the song of an angel. “yea i'm fine” I said still staring into her eyes, she blushed. I snapped back to my senses when a much less attractive old man moved her aside and started asking me questions. He put a knife to my throat and asked with utmost sincerity “who are you? and what are you doing here? but before he could finish I had him face first on the floor with his hands behind his back.”I am corporal Samuel M. Dexter from Team two of the Red crucible Autobahn map on Team Deathmatch mode” I hollered at him, then lowered my voice and said” so i'll tell you what, i’ll let you go and we can have a talk, you tell me where i am and we have no more fighting deal?” I stared wide eyed down at his squished gruffy face on the floor. He hesitated then ”Deal” he said through gritted teeth. I slowly got off and stood up and smelled the air it was different than the air on the autobahn map this was much sweeter. I turned to look at the daughter who was staring wide eyed and mouth

    Army cover-up and confusion following Pat Tillman’s death effectively clouded the true events on that fateful day in April, 2004. Jon Krakauer’s purpose in creating this book was to uncover that truth. Throughout the novel he canvasses the opinions and viewpoints of Tillman’s life. The section about the fight at the Roundtable Pizzeria contains interview from friends of the individual Tillman mistakenly attacked. These opposing viewpoints of Pat’s character give the reader a more well-rounded view of him. Rather than reporting just one facet, Krakauer gives the whole truth. Similarly, he gets multiple opinions concerning the punishment of the teammates responsible for killing Tillman. Some of them said they were too severe, and others thought they were a mere slap on the wrist. These interviews show the truth of the discord between the members of the platoon, caused by the death of Pat Tillman. The most important opinion of the book is Tillman’s own. Krakauer’s analysis of his diaries and notes is crucial to understanding Pat’s mind and his decisions. For instance, the reader learns that joining the army wasn’t about glory for Tillman;…

He passed La Salle Bank, the frosty golden doors shining bright from the reflection of a corner street lamp.

    This paper will argue that in the pursuance of survival the protagonist, Ishmael Beah, must cope with and adapt to the desolate world around him. It takes strength mentally and physically to survive, carry on through hardships, yet it requires beyond this to live, purse a lifestyle, during the war. Conforming to the war that surrounds him Ishmael is choosing to do more than simply survive he is choosing to live as he does the necessary requirements to ensure his body and soul live on. Ishmael’s unconscious goal of living rather than surviving is exhibited through his conformity to his war torn country that surrounds him. Ishmael adapts to life as a child soldier via guns and drugs as a means of survival. Living without his family, Ishmael encourages himself to adapt the war-flawed country by grasping onto memories of the past and thoughts of being reconnected with his family once again. Ishmael experiences situations that he has to acclimatize in order to keep his soul alive.…

    Mr. Lederer and Mr. Burdick wrote the Ugly American many decades ago and it is a story that holds many truths of how we act and operate in today’s society. This fictional work displayed characters that truly understood many of the Special Operation Forces (SOF) imperatives. Louis Krupitzyn, John Colvin and Major Wolchek represented the SOF imperatives of understanding the operational environment, anticipating and controlling psychological effects, operating with and through others, considering the long term effects, facilitating interagency activities, and engaging the threat discriminately. I will combine my own experiences and those of these three characters in The Ugly American. I will demonstrate how the SOF imperatives influenced their behavior and how I approached situations during my time in Special Forces.…

    As I entered his room I was glad to see that he was awake. That’s a good sign, I told myself. Finny greeted me without a trace of friendliness, and I told him, “I’ve been trying to tell you...” His face seemed calm as he spoke, “You simply didn’t know what you were doing in the tree, is that it?” “Yes, yes of course you’re right, but how can you believe that?” “I think I understand that it wasn’t personal. I think I can believe you.”…

    My body is under attack. An attack I am all too familiar with. It feels as if an explosive has detonated in my head. I am disoriented and struggling to get my thoughts together. The pain is intense and crippling. I tilt my head back, and rest it on the headboard hoping for relief. I shut my eyes, and gently place my hands on my temples. As I begin to massage my temples, the invader silently enters into my thoughts and begins to taunt me, “You deserve everything you get, he whispers”. “It doesn’t matter how you try to escape me, I will be here. I will be here today, tomorrow, and for the remainder of your life”. Trying to ignore the whisper, I grab two Advil off the nearby nightstand, and wash them down with a sip of coffee. I squeeze my eyes tight, and begin to feel tears burn the back of my eyelids. My thoughts begin to become tainted with feelings of despair, hopelessness and sorrow. I open my eyes, and standing within arm’s reach of me, is my ten year old son. I choke back my tears, force myself to smile and reach out for a hug.…

    I want to hear your cries and gasps for air as drown you, no-one will be able to hear your screams. I don't care if you're sorry anymore, Winston. You’re always sorry, and I don't want to hear it. You should have told me all that shit back when it could have made a difference, back when I loved you so much, and I would have gladly died in your place. You took what was beautiful in me and made it into what it fucking is today. I hope you're proud, it's all your handiwork.” She grinned showing yellowed tea stained teeth, her grey beautiful eyes wider than any sane persons should be. She ran her hands which were frail and caution as if she was almost scared of herself, shaking gently as she reached for the back of my head. Her hands were not ghostly but rather, just subdued and greyish. I think that's the first time I realized how vulnerable she was and how much of a toll I had mentally taken on her. I had no clue why she was doing this, she had never threatened me before. Of course we had my troubles, I had a trouble with gambling in the past, but I stopped for…
