Weapons and Technology of WW1 World War I was called “the war to end all wars;,” however, it didn’t end anything. World War I was the biggest war anyone has ever seen in their time. Some countries were crippled, and some countries were strengthened, the same can be said of families. Over 38 million people died during this horrendous conflict, most of these deaths were civilians. Philippians 3:13 says, “Brothers, I do not consider that I have made it my own. But one thing I do: forgetting what…

Cliff Olson was born in Riverside, California, on July 8, 1967. The first memory that he ever had was when he was little and he was playing catch with his friend Chriss in his backyard. He threw the ball and Chriss missed it and the ball went through the back window of the house. He loved playing baseball with all of his buddies in the park. Cliff loved his mother's dad, grandpa Joe. He called him Daddie Joe because Cliff knew he loved him unconditionally. Cliff’s dad didn’t really treat him…

The Graduate The sequence that I have chosen for analysis is the scene after the party and Dustin is moping in his room, until he puts his hand in the fish tank to pull out his keys. The scene begins with Mrs. Robinson bursting in on Benjamin. The sound of the door is quite loud in the small space, making it much more intrusive than it might normally have been and possibly drawing a metaphor about her entry not just into his room but into his private life. Her voice is totally calm…

8 paragraphs that describe the book of octopuses Octopuses are considered the world’s smartest invertebrate, which is one of the reasons that sparked Sy Montgomery’s interest in the animals. As a naturalist and author, she decided to explore the world of the octopus and describe her journey in her book “Soul of an Octopus”. Montgomery describes her journey from the beginning, giving readers facts and information about these interesting invertebrates, and describing how she developed a strong…

a searing orange glow, and was ripped apart by a series of loud explosions. The deafening noise and intense explosions promoted a greater sense of urgency to my companion’s movements as he scanned the battlefield. He motioned to me to stay with the tank (what else would I do? Members of the SS such as him epitomise Hitler’s master race, that is they are blonde and dumb), before heading toward a shell-hole some metres away. Machine-gun-fire erupted around our position, hitting him in the back. He…

“The T-10 can be considered the pinnacle "Josef Stalin" tank design as it is the tank that superseded previous forms and became the final product of the series” (militaryfactory.com). “It sported an all new main gun, redesigned body and turret and put upon itself all of the lessons learned through armed conflict in World…

most complex and most important to be held in September 1941. The 1940 maneuvers began in May with 70,000 soldiers, who trained and “fought” in four separate exercises of three days each, beginning on May 9. After the May war games, several senior tank experts, including Colonel George S. Patton Jr., recommended the Army create separate armored divisions that could operate unencumbered by infantry or horse cavalry units. The recommendation was forwarded to Army Chief of Staff General George C.…

were very tactically awkward. Commanders never before truly experimented with the concept of combine arms on this grand of a scale. This battle was famous for its advances in aerial tactics, as well as the first appearance of the British Mark 1 Tank. However, one of the key aspects of the Somme Offensive was not only did it feature one of the largest artillery barrages in history,…

In this essay, I will be questioning whether the film ‘The Battle of the Somme’ provides a realistic picture of life in the trenches during the First World War. The Battle of the Somme, that had been fought in northern France, was one of the most violent battles that had taken place during the First World War. It had lasted five months while the British and French fought the Germans on a 15- mile front. The purpose of this battle was to hopefully alleviate the French who had been fighting at…
