“Al-Shaitan” “The American Sniper” by Chris Kyle is an account of the deadliest American sniper ever‚ called “the devil” by the enemies he hunted and “the legend” by his Navy SEAL brothers.

Civil war‚ ireland 1922-1923. A brother kills a brother. People literally being shot on the street. The sniper shows us the side of war and civil war that many do not see. This is my view on the exemplary piece of writing “the sniper”. The year 10 pupils of saint patrick college should find this story interesting. It uses a large range of vocabulary and keeps the reader in suspense and making us want to read it more. It explains the setting/characters very well‚ for example “The long june twilight

How to make an Origami Crane I am going to demonstrate how to make an origami crane‚ which I thought it was interesting because of the Japanese legend of the thousand cranes or the well-known story ‘Sadako and the Thousand Paper Cranes’. I´m sure all the Michael Scofield lovers will find this entertaining too . An ancient Japanese legend promises that anyone who folds a thousand origami cranes will be granted a wish by a crane. Some stories believe you are granted eternal good luck‚ instead of

American Sniper The title alone sums the movie up perfectly and drawing out all suspicion or notions that this is not just some war movie‚ instead more of noble story of America’s own navy SEAL Chris Kyle and one of the us military’s most deadly sniper with a confirmed kill count of 160 souls and over 200 claimed kills .

American Sniper Out of the books I read American Sniper is the best one. It’s a book about action and love. It starts off with the young Chris Kyle riding broncos. He decided to go into the army after he saw how bad the nation was becoming. During training he met the love of his life and made a lot of friends. This book is a good read and I recommend it to all readers. Ever since Chris Kyle was a kid he loved being a cowboy. He started riding ponies on the ranch and lassoing fake calves. He grew

Snipers play a critical role in the United States Military. They are excellent scouts‚ renowned for identifying enemy weaknesses and high value commanders. Often working alone or in small groups‚ they can strategically pin down enemy patrols‚ creating fear and ineffectiveness amongst enemy combatants.

assumed maybe the sniper himself would ended up dead and every line I waited for that shot for the other side to kill him. I think this story was very well written since it didn’t give away what would happen while still including some foreshadowing that you wouldn’t really see until you reread it. What I noticed for example was when his brother died there was so much detail put into the description on his death talking about how he toppled of the roof and how it affected the sniper which was not the
