Soldiers Homecoming Persuasive Speech

Love and Hate
If you want to see some intensely emotional videos, just go on YouTube and write "Soldier Homecoming" and look at one of the most emotional videos you can find on YouTube or anywhere else. The videos are filled with happiness, tears, surprise, and other positive feelings. And as you watch the video (or videos) it is difficult to hold your tears, and you just get happy because someone (a father, mother, brother, sister, wife, husband, son, etc.) meets with their beloved (which is also one of the abovementioned), and you don't know either of them.
I'm not going to write about the war, not the casualties, not the political debates about this, no! My point in all this is that you see how happy everyone is (those who watch included) that they met their loved ones, so how can it happen that if everyone loves everyone, and is happy about their homecoming, how can it happen after some days those same people that cried tears of joy and happiness, the same people that collapsed in crying in front of school, friends, family, work colleagues (and they didn't care what people thought about this), how could the same people fight with each other, the same people throw words to each other that maybe you wouldn't want to say to your enemy.

Just try to behave with them as best as you can, and you will see that the relationship just gets better. If they continue with their behavior, just give them a small sincerely advice (or make them read the article it doesn't matter), but just try with small things and things will get

This is where the possible inductees on my “ballot” that are on the fringe landed. For years questions have raged on why Mike Piazza isn’t in the Hall of Fame yet, and some even sunk low enough to think it was sabotage.

  • Compare And Contrast Speaking Of Courage And Soldiers Home

    “Soldiers Home” by Ernest Hemingway and “Speaking of Courage” by Tim O’Brien both deal with the difficulties of veterans returning home from war. Both of the protagonists, Krebs and Bowker respectively, experience trauma, which leads them on a search for self-discovery and an outlet for their pain. At the end of each story, neither of the characters wants to participate in society anymore. Despite the similarities, Norman Bowker is more forthcoming with his feelings, ultimately making him a more successful character. In addition, the similarities and differences between the authors’ styles accentuate those that occur within the characters of the stories; both authors use symbolism to show the changes in the dynamic characters over the course of the narratives.

Service members make extreme sacrifices to defend our country and act selflessly by doing so; it is fitting that they are seen as heroes by many Americans.
