Part three of the reading HW

Ok so a couple of things that came to mind while I was reading the last third of the reading. When the author mentioned that the soldiers were as young as 18 year old that really hit me. I knew they were young but i cant even imagine if I had had to go to fight only a year from now. They had thier whole lives ahead of them, they hadnt even been to college yet. Also, going from the movies we have seen lately from BOB and Saving Private Ryan i really see how brutal the wars can be. No matter how many times I see it, the amount of suffering gets to me every time.
