Read the excerpt from A Rumor of War (Links to an external site.). Repeatedly, I have found myself wishing that I had been the v
eteran of a conventional war, with dramatic campaigns and historic battles for subject matter instead of a monotonous succession of ambushes and firefights. Which best describes the purpose of the paradox in the excerpta) because the author wrote about the vietnam war, but he did not actually fight in itb) because many people have forgotten the events that happened during the vietnam warc) because the vietnam war was fought in an especially brutal and untraditional wayd) because many of the vietnam war stories are believed to be untrue and exaggerated
c) because the Vietnam war was fought in an especially brutal and untraditional way
Explanation:
In the excerpt from "A Rumor of War," the author Philip Caputo makes reference to the brutality of the Vietnam War, in which he fought, and the difficulties for the soldiers to go through an unprecedented and unusual armed conflict. In that respect, he mentions attacks by surprise and battles with guns instead of using other kinds of armament.
The Framers of the Constitution and people who wrote the Declaration of Independence wanted everyone to be equal, to have the same unalienable rights that no one could take away from them. All people should be treated the same, regardless of their sex, skin color, political affiliations, religion, etc.
