That relates to the topic of American identities like planes, German relations, world war, and culture.

<h3>What is identity?</h3><h3 />

Their identity is made up of a combination of their characteristics and personality quirks. It defines the way people usually behave.

The forename is "junior" since it is customary in America to name firstborn children following their fathers. Another illustration would be to mention American aircraft engaged in combat with German forces.

This is indeed a result of the United States' involvement in combat with Germany including the World Wars. The remaining characteristics that highlight an American identity are allusions to American popular culture.

The question is incomplete, the complete question will be:

But we're outside in the sun. My big brother Junior hunkered against the wall with his eyes shut. My little brother Keeks running around in circles.

Maybe and most probably my little brother is imagining he's a flying feather dancer, like the ones we saw swinging high up from a pole on the Vir-gi-n's birthday. I want to be a flying feather dancer too, but when he circles past me he shouts, “I’m a B-Fifty-two bomber, you’re a German,” and shoots me with an invisible machine gun. I’d rather play flying feather dancers, but if I tell my brother this, he might not play with me at all.

“Girl. We can’t play with a girl.” Girl. It's my brother's favorite insult now instead of “sissy.” “You girl, they yell at each other. “You throw that ball like a girl.”

I've already made up my mind to be a German when Keeks swoops past again, this time yelling, “I'm Flash Gordon. You’re Ming the Merciless and the Mud People.” I don’t mind being Ming the Merciless, but I don't like being the Mud People. Something wants to come out of the corners of my eyes, but I don’t let it. Crying is what girls do.

I leave Keeks running around in circles — I'm the Lone Ranger, you're Tonto.” I leave Junior squatting on his ankles and go look for the awful grandmother.

Why do churches smell like the inside of an ear? Like incense and the dark and candles in blue glass? And why does holy water smell of tears? The awful grandmother makes me kneel and fold my hands. The ceiling high and everyone's prayers bumping up there like balloons.

If I stare at the eyes of the saints long enough, they move and wink at me, which makes me a sort of saint too. When I get tired of winking saints, I count the awful grandmother's mustache hairs while she prays for Uncle Old, sick from the worm, and Auntie Cuca, suffering from a life of troubles that left half her face crooked and the other half sad.

Record any details that relate to the topic of American identity.​
