I cannot believe how many soldiers have come in from the battlefield. I think at this point it must be on the upwards of 5,000 soldiers with casualties. The battle of Antietam Creek sure is a bloody one. What a shame. My care to the wounded can only go so far. Amputation after amputation it only gets harder and harder to see the intense pain they go through. One soldier came in with a bullet wound above the elbow. He asked me, already knowing the answer, “What can you do to save it” All I could say was “I’ll try my hardest to keep you alive don’t worry about your arm” Once we got into surgery I instantly decided to begin to draw what was really going on for future reference for if I had to do a solo operation.

At the start she brought in four wagons filled with all sorts of supplies for the nurses and surgeons on site. But with each and every patient that number is getting lower and lower. I am so thankful for her. Without her I do not know what we would have been able to do. When she came I…

population of the animals; as the animals grew scarce the Indians had to expand their historic hunting grounds. Escalating conflicts over hunting territories grew into war between Creeks and Choctaws in the 1760s. Native American warfare was nothing like the warfare of Eastern Europe. Garcilaso de la Vega described Indian warfare as consisting mainly of “ambushes and subtlety” and only rarely of pitched battles. Casualties were generally light. Occasionally, the Indians “went so far as to burn…
We see the main characters of Dawson’s Creek exiting the latency stage, which spans until puberty and consists of suppressed sexual feelings, and beginning the genital stage, which spans puberty into adult life and consists of sexual maturation and gratifying that desire. The characters of Dawson’s Creek are seen developing these feelings for each other, which often causes confusion as they work to figure out what they mean. They begin to struggle through their emerging romantic feelings, their…

Foundations of Strategy Lt Col Frank Taravella, USAF In the history of war, man has struggled to analyze and understand conflict from various points of view.

Having historical examples does not completely encompass all aspects of modern warfare, as no two conflicts are exactly the same. In this essay I will attempt to…
