The Lost Puppy

The owing(p) Impact of War Modern warfargon has changed a great deal since we fought for our freedom from Great Britain in the late 18th century, and has possibly even changed more since dry land War 1. Countless Battles have been fought passim our gracious history here in American, and many stories have been told from older to younger generations. This is where Ogichidag, meaning warrior, tells its story. Soldiers from luminary wars throughout history have vivid and very detailed accounts of what they saw musical composition they were at war.Many of these adorned warriors tell of their stories to younger generations, and in this case it is a family tradition for many of the men to join the arm forces. As they go off to war they must deal with the aftermath of all they accumulated while there, and welcome a way to deal with this bitterness. For many citizenry listening to their elders stories, and auditory modality the many accolades theyve accumulated is a great privilege. In Ogichidag this person hears stories all the way back to World War 1.He vividly listens as, the old men told stories of getting gassed in the trenches, WW one (Lines 2-3). As he listens to these stories of great harm he feels more intrigued with every word. He indulges in the thought of one day having the equal stories to tell his son or daughter. He knows to well that going and serving his country is more than lay on a vest and running around in the desert. He thinks of it as an honorable consummation within himself.As it later goes on to describe his cousins as he, felt the fear in their voices (9) he knows his fourth dimension to serve his beloved country is right around the corner. Entering most arguable the hardest branch in the military, the marines, is also another feat that will show just how mentally and physically ready he is. Joining the marines right before the Cuban Missile Crisis, he was at the most intense resolve of the Cold War. At the blink of an eye, Ameri ca could be engaged in nuclear warfare.For those thirteen long time soldiers were ready for anything, and while no shots were fired it helped him prepare for the only war American has ever lost. 58,148 people died in the war we know as Vietnam. Watching comrades die in front of ones eyes played a major influence on how these veterans lived out the rest of their lives. As what seems to be a family tradition for this family to serve in the military, he knew from all the stories he had heard over the eld that war was no easy task. For the lives he saw lost at war, telling these stories would be preferably problematical.As Ogichidag describes each war since the early 1900s, each warrior it portrays the hardships that come with war. Though speaking of such excruciating memories, they find it important to pass down stories so their family legacy never dies. With the ears of the prospering young ogichidags are filled, they have a sense of excitement going to war. While their eager to se rve this great nation they know in the back of their heads the aftermath of war is very powerful, and they must deal with this wretchedness.
