I am really learning a lot at school and I am improving all my study skills. I have started to focus more on homework so I can keep my grades up and not have consequences for not turning assignments in on time. Each of my classes are different from each other. For instance, my English 10 class is by far the hardest class I have. Even though I have only been here for 5 weeks I have learned a lot. My math class is a fun class because we do fun activities and projects in class. My science class is also fun because we always do cool experiments. Shop class is my favorite class because I love to build things and I get to do that an hour a day all the time. Computer apps is a fun class to be in because everyone is always happy and we get to play games on the computer at the end of class.

About 17,000 died, the great majority while serving with Bomber Command in air raids over Germany in an effort to destroy German industry and the morale of the German people. By the end of the day Germany has lost over 60 aircraft and failed to smash the Allied air defenses.

Patents were in close quarters at all times which helped spread diseases, the most common were dysentery, malaria, or typhoid.

    As more men were being called on to participate and fight in the war, women stepped up to produce the heavy machinery needed for the war and home to keep the country running. Women learned and did well at men-dominated trades like welding, riveting, and engine repair. Women were an integral role for a victory in the war as they were needed for the production and supply of goods to the troops fighting overseas. It was during this time that women disproved the notion that women were incapable of manual and technical labor. The main reason I left a domestic job to be a part of the factory was based on the fact that wages in munition plants and airplane factories were higher.…

    Militarization of a civilized society can be very quiet, acting behind the scenes and is often used in the justification of political and economic agenda’s such as the militarization of the United states post 9-11. Public propaganda does not need to be utilized in order to effect a social perception of an enemy, but is often an effective tool for swaying social acceptance and commitment to the militarization process (Lutz 2002). Routinizing and normalizing terror has aided the U.S in effectively allocating resources to the military, changing social perceptions and ideologies and creating a large standing army under the guise of humanitarian efforts. By convincing the citizens of a country that the enemy is corrupt, or is simply not adhering…
