“Where Have You Gone, Charming Billy?” Enlist Paragraph


If I could enlist in the military I would, because it could give me more endurance. I need the endurance, because it is a great skill, life skill. I would also join to be of help to the country and community. I would join the army because it would be beneficial and have many great benefits. If I were in the selective service and was drafted out onto a war, I would not try to dodge it I would just go with the flow and join which ever thing they wanted me to. I wouldn’t dodge it, because I wouldn’t want to have to hide for basically the rest of my life or be found and arrested. I rather just deal with it and have whatever happens, happen.

Primary and Secondary Sources Comparison


A primary source is a story of an events witnessed by a bystander, victim or witness. It may also be an event written by the person who witnessed it or experienced it, such as: a diary, an autobiography, personal essays, editorials or speeches. A secondary source is a magazine article, newspaper articles, encyclopedias, or textbooks. A secondary source is written by someone who did not take part in the events they have begun writing about. One thing that both primary and secondary sources have in common is that they are sources and they both help talk about events and solve or discuss them. Those are also a couple of reasons as to why primary and secondary sources are helpful.
