    The analysis I made was based on Douglas McGray’s article “Lost in America”. You did a great job mentioning where the article can be found and giving a brief summary of the article at the beginning. It helps the reader understand the main points of the article. However, you started your introduction with “Douglas McGray, in Lost in America”, which is a very common attention-grabber. Unfortunately, because of its frequent usage, it becomes boring or less interesting to readers. You should try to start in a more creative way like a statement meant to surprise or amuse readers. The strategies you used to address the thesis statement was not very effective since your paper lack’s a purpose and you did not specify the audience. Also, it would be…

    Unfortunate for Japanese Americans, were the events of Pearl Harbor, an act that defined the fate of thousands of U.S. citizens of Japanese ancestry.

    The book American Sniper is written by Chris Kyle that is a captivating, thrilling, and very dramatic autobiography that follows his life as he turns from a bustin’ broncos cowboy into the deadliest sniper in U.S. history with over 160 confirmed kills. Chris was born in Odessa, Texas on April 8, 1984 and was truly the definition of a patriot. He loved the country he grew up in and that motivated him to enlist as a Navy Seal in 1999. When reading his book it was brought to my attention just how much soldier's sacrifice when going off to war. The stakes really are higher than just their individual life, for almost all of them have people who are relying on them back home, because not only is their duty to their country but also to their families.…

    To start the essay off id like to go over the "reason" that i am writing the essay to ensure you (the reader) that i know why i am writing it. When i raised my right hand on September 14th 2012 i was swearing into the U.S Army, which was pretty much me saying that i will obey by everything they want and need me to do. I went to basic training where i was taught many things, one of which was "Dress Right Dress" which pretty much means everything is the same. I learned that the army wants everything this way so that it doesn't look like a "Gaggle Fuck" as our sergeants like to put it. This is to ensure that when we don't have individuals here because as everyone here knows by now the army doesn't work when you try by yourself, but when you work as a team., so when i got to AIT and decided to put my shower shoes into my civilian bag i made a bad choice because i know that the order of our shoe display was "Boots, Dress shoes, Running Shoes, Shower Shoes." so when i made the choice to not have shower shoes i was pretty much saying F*** You to the rules and tired doing my own thing.…
