<span>McCarthyism became a catchword for charges and accusations against other Americans.

During the era after World War II, the fear of communism spread throughout the US as America and the Soviet Union competed for global power and influence. This constant fear and paranoia of communism was only fueled by Senator Joseph McCarthy. McCarthy accused numerous people of being communist, including members of the State Department and even members of the American military. These types of accusations increased suspicion in the US and caused American citizens to turn on each other. </span>

What happens in Acts 27?
Rudik [331]

Answer:

Paul sails for Rome and endures a shipwreck.

Explanation:

Paul Sails for Rome

27 When it was decided that we would sail for Italy, Paul and some other prisoners were handed over to a centurion named Julius, who belonged to the Imperial Regiment. 2 We boarded a ship from Adramyttium about to sail for ports along the coast of the province of Asia, and we put out to sea. Aristarchus, a Macedonian from Thessalonica, was with us.

3 The next day we landed at Sidon; and Julius, in kindness to Paul, allowed him to go to his friends so they might provide for his needs. 4 From there we put out to sea again and passed to the lee of Cyprus because the winds were against us. 5 When we had sailed across the open sea off the coast of Cilicia and Pamphylia, we landed at Myra in Lycia. 6 There the centurion found an Alexandrian ship sailing for Italy and put us on board. 7 We made slow headway for many days and had difficulty arriving off Cnidus. When the wind did not allow us to hold our course, we sailed to the lee of Crete, opposite Salmone. 8 We moved along the coast with difficulty and came to a place called Fair Havens, near the town of Lasea.

ZanzabumX [31]
Many of washingtons men would no longer be obligated to fight due to the provisional enlistments that typically lasted for no longer than a year. Many of them had already decided they had done their part and since moral was low at this time, it was expected a lot of men would stop fighting on January 1st. Because of this, he wanted to attack while he still had the men to have more power and also boost morale among the men who would potentially be leaving
