Describe the average American G.I. What was his/her experience in vietnam?

English
1 answer:
stepladder [879]3 years ago
7 0

Some GI volunteered to go to Vietnam. But many of the soldiers who went were drafted into the service, ineligible for a student deferment because they had never been to college.

They had to deal with several frustrations particular to the war in Vietnam. Many were brought in piecemeal as replacements within existing units, which made them feel disconnected from the larger group. And with no geographical lines separating friend from foe, the GI in the field couldn't trust anyone. Villagers might be innocent civilians or Viet Cong sympathizers.

The majority of American soldiers never witnessed large-scale battles or suffered through the terror of a jungle ambush during their one-year tours. But when they did, dozens of men could die within minutes. If they are lucky enough to survive the year until his Date Eligible for Return from Overseas, or DEROS, they get to go back home in one piece.


Hope it helps

cheers

what evidence supports the theme that belief can thrive even in dire situations? check all that apply. "they thought of how they
Marysya12 [62]

Three pieces of evidence support this belief, these are the lines "they thought of how they had laboured," "what discouragements they had overcome" and "they gambolled round and round the windmill, uttering cries of triumph."

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • Animals are being exploited and living in bad conditions, even after the revolution that promised them so much.
  • This was all aggravated after the windmill stopped working, as it was essential for the farm's well-being.
  • All of this made them feel very despondent about the whole situation.
  • When the windmill was recovered, they felt very happy and ignored all the problems they were going through.
  • They skipped around the mill, as its working was a point of happiness amidst the difficulties they were going through.

With that, even though there were still many problems on the farm, they felt excited, mainly because the mill was fixed by their work.

This question is about "Animal Farm" and you can find more information about it here:
