PATRIOTISM There was this one particular day‚ where we studied about Patriotism (Pagkamakabayan)‚ which is true love for the homeland; and it has changed my views on being a patriotic person a lot. Patriotism grows from loyalty to one’s nation out of love for its citizens and its natural resources‚ it is a duty that every person must be proud to have; because if it weren’t for our country‚ then we would be homeless. We owe a lot to our country‚ and let us give back by giving love and time for

Patriotic Duty I believe in the soldier every little boy wants to become. By this I mean I believe in serving your country. As children we have all probably played army man and doctor‚ and we had fun. But what happened to that? Is it like the bad taste in our mouth? So very dry and disgusting finding out we have to actually work to achieve those? In my opinion I find it as a pride to look forward to‚ serving my country and protecting others. I like America I find I should serve it as my patriotic

Kantorek writes to them and calls them "Iron Youth" glorifying their patriotism. The men used to look up to him‚ but now despise him for pushing them to enlist and exposing them to the horrors of the war. The boys visit Kemmerich. He doesn’t know that his leg has been amputated.

would be wrong! There’s a message‚ in fact‚ there are multiple messages. You just have to look deeper than usual. The poem "next to of course god america i" centers around the ideas of patriotism within a nation‚ namely the United States. The writing style mocks the strident tone of “traditional” American patriotism. While Americans are all busy rallying against a common foe‚ the reality is that a minimal population is going to end up doing all of the fighting. Imagine a member of the U.S. Congress
