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 does punctuation indicate about how a passage should be read aloud? Choose four correct answers. Come to a complete halt wh
krek1111 [17]

Answer: Raise your volume when you read a sentence with an exclamation point to show exciteme

Pause briefly when you reach a comma, and pause a bit longer at a semicolon.

Come to a complete halt when you reach a period.

Make your voice rise to a higher pitch at the end of sentences with a question mark.

Explanation:

Those four correct answers from your question are considering one of the rules on how to read properly when it comes to punctuation in the sentences. <u>When reading, readers must pay attention to those punctations and often those are comma, a period, question mark and exclamation point. </u>

They are used to make the sentence more understandable and to reach the point of the idea of the sentence.

  • The answers that are not correct are ''reading quickly without pausing at commas'' which is incorrect because it will confuse the readers. Where there is a semicolon there should not be a complete halt as it is when it comes to a period at the end of the sentence.
