Why Is Queen Lilli Unjustified
Queen Lili`uokalani started her reign on January 29, 1891. In the beginning, a group called the Annexationists wanted to annex Hawaii to America. On
July 4, 1894, Sanford Dole, who was apart of the Annexationist, declared himself president illegally. Lili`uokalani then was arrested for hidden weapons
in her home and then on January 24, 1895. Queen Lili`uokalani officially gave up her throne on January 24,1895. The Overthrow of the Hawaiian
Kingdom was unjustified because Queen Lili'oukalani was illegally overthrown and the Annexationist illegally created a government in Hawaii.
The first reason why the overthrow of the Hawaiian Kingdom was unjustified is because Queen Lili'oukalani was illegally overthrown. Lili'oukalani

In conclusion, both writers have presented two different aspects of World War One: the living and the dead. This opposing contrast presents life for the

end of the horror but suggests how the horror lives on because even now, there are still remains and bodies found in the most normal places saying it's
something that will never be forgotten. It's the end of the story. But Bayonet Charge takes the audience through the terrifying experience of war and the

All Quiet On The Western Front Historical Accuracy
All Quiet on the Western Front is a fictional war story by Erich Maria Remarque that takes place in the First World War. Erich Maria Remarque was
a German soldier in the First World War who suffered multiple injuries during his service. Erich Maria Remarque wrote All Quiet on the Western
Front based on his experience from the First World War. The First World War is the first war to employ trench warfare, which was the digging of
tunnels known as trenches to use as a defensive position on a battlefield, as a military strategy. The use of trenches in the First World War caused many
casualties due to the fact that the trenches are good defensive encampments, and the use of trenches caused many stalemates that were very hard to
break without losing... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
All Quiet on the Western Front mentions multiple weapons being used by the characters. The main characters have a rifle with a bayonet, which
can be serrated or not serrated, on the end. The enemy would kill any captured Germans that they found with a serrated blade. German bayonets
can be detached from the rifle, which the bayonet is attached to, and used as a sword or dagger. Paul Bäumer's dagger that he stabbed Gérard
Duval was likely a bayonet that Paul Bäumer took off of its rifle. Early machine guns needed to be cooled down using water, and this fact is stated
in the story. The first tanks were used in the First World War even though tanks were not mentioned in the story. Tanks often broke in the middle of
and outside of battle. Gas shells were used in the story, and Paul Bäumer had to help a scared recruit put on his gas mask during one gas

Battle Of Lone Pine Essay
The Battle of Lone Pine was an attack diverting the Turkish army allowing the ANZAC's to reach high ground at Chanuk Bair and Hill 971 in 1915.
The Battle met the criteria of a just war using the principles of no means malum in se, proportionality/military necessity and distinction. By adapting the
attack to these just war criteria, the ANZAC's were successful against the Turkish army and gained them the high ground.

How Did Soldiers Use Bayonet
Swords used during the American Civil War (1861–1865) differed depending on what rank the soldier was and what type of combat the soldier was
going to see. The swords differed in design, material, blade, and hilt. Most of the soldiers using swords of any sort were using bayonets made
specifically for stabbing, attached at the front of their rifle, made from a solid material with minimal design, and not sharp anywhere but the tip.
Highly ranked officers carried very decorated, gold and silver, swords a bit heavier than bayonets with a slight curve but were completely dull on one
side, semi–sharp on the fighting edge, and very sharp and pointy towards the tip. Soldiers that were anticipated to do a lot of close combat were
given curved swords made from a light material with some design but not nearly as much as an officer's sword. It was sharp and pointy, made to do
severe damage. ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Only 1% of deaths recorded during the War were the result of a bayonet wound (Civil War Bayonet). Most soldiers used their bayonets as tools

stationed, some got bayonets that were as short as a foot and others had a bayonet almost as long as their rifle. But most bayonets were sized from
one–to–two feet in length and made from a sturdy metal material. It was similar to a large knife, it would just simply slide onto the end of the rifle

Gun Rights : The Symbols Of The Second Amendment
The second amendment entitles the people to own or bear arms. Many people today believe that gun rights should be repealed or removed for the Bill
of Rights, but I believe that this is one of our very first amendments and it is one of the most important ones, because it keeps the government from
imposing tyranny or an oppressive government upon the people. The second amendment also give us the ability to protect ourselves without the
government taking the right away from you. History is filled with stories of government overpowering people, and without the second amendment
these problems will repeat themselves. The past couple of months this year believe that gun laws or rights are being violated, and many people are

position against a cavalry charge. Bayonet charges were rarely attempted until the enemy was retreating.
Rifle– A rifle was the weapon that was something that everyman got, it was reasonably cheap to produce, reliable, accurate and easy to carry. British
soldiers were issued with the Lee–Enfield 303, while most Germans received a 7.92mm Mauser. Both of the rifles were highly durable and had good

Why Overthrow Of The Hawaiian Kingdom Was Unjustified?
The Overthrow of the Hawaiian Kingdom was when Hawaii's monarchy was dethroned by the Committee of Safety on January 17, 1893. The
Committee of Safety was a group of thirteen people led by Lorrin Thurston that caused the overthrow of Hawaii. Foreigners in Hawaii were overruling
the native Hawaiians and the natives never had a chance to speak their opinions. Many foreigners came to Hawaii to start a new life or to share their
religion with people, but a group of people named The Hawaiian League (which later is the Committee of Safety) which later caused the Overthrow in
1893. The Overthrow of the Hawaiian Kingdom was unjustified because Queen Lili'uokalani opposed the overthrow, the Committee of Public Safety,
and the revolution was illegal. ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Opposers say this because Queen Lili'uokalani was a sovereign and was planning to replace the Bayonet Constitution with a new constitution of her
own ("Hawaii's Last Queen"). When the constitution she was trying to create was caught by the foreigners, they viewed this as an act of revolution.
Ministers betrayed her to tell the Committee of Public Safety about the new constitution Queen Lili'uokalani made because they all thought that she
was a dangerous person. However, this is completely fake, she was not a rebel and only created a new constitution because she wanted better rights
for her people. Queen Lili'uokalani was trying to replace was the Bayonet Constitution with a constitution of her own because the it reduced the power
of native Hawaiians and they couldn't vote because of it. By replacing this constitution, Hawaii's monarch's power will be restored. Also, according to

from the 2nd Maine Infantry were marched under guard into the regimental area of the 20th Maine. The 2nd Maine men were in a state of mutiny and

for six months where he was diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder. Smith later attended University of Michigan Law School and got into trouble
when he trashed an office. Despite this, Smith graduated summa cum laude law review, with a Postdoctoral Associateship in 1987 and passed the bar a
year later. He routinely stopped taking his medication either because he thought he was cured or because he couldn't stand the side effects.

Friedrich Wilhelm Von Steuben's Life Before The...
Friedrich was a very important person, not only during the American Revolutionary war, but also before the war. Friedrich Wilhelm von Steuben
was born on September 17, 1730 in Magdeburg, Duchy of Magdeburg, in Germany. He was the son of Lieutenant Wilhelm von Steuben and
Elizabeth von Jagvodin. He had no spouses or children before the war. Friedrich received his education at Breslau, which is currently known as
Wroclaw. Two years after the Austrian Succession, he was officially enlisted into the Prussian War. His job before the war was a general staff
officer to Frederick the Great in 1761, during the Seven Years' War. His rank in the Seven Year's War was an inspector general. His role was to be a

His vision on the program was to create a model company. Friedrich Wilhelm von Steuben spoke little english, but he had a translator at his side at
all times so that he was still able to bark orders to his soldiers when needed. The model company consisted of 120 soldiers that were chosen to be
trained for the war. And in return they would train the other soldiers that Friedrich wasn't able to train. The soldiers would use bayonets to fight
instead of bullets. By using the bayonets, they won the Battle of Stony Point. Men were also taught to survive in the camp he created, where
animal died and were stripped clean from their meat. The bayonet was mainly used as a tool during this training in the camp. Friedrich Wilhelm
von Steuben also created the blue book, that was basically an outline for Valley Forge. He gave assistance to Washington in demobilizing the army
in 1783, as well as aiding in the defense plan of the new nation. He was discharged from the military with honor on March 24, 1783. He was also
involved in many other wars. Such as the war of Siege of Prague in 1744. Another war was the Battle of Kolberg, as well as the Battle of

Sculpture Of The Warrior
Sculpture of the Warrior
His untamed hair was styled by the changes of time. The shaggy clumps of hair flowed uncontrollably like water out of burst pipe from the tip of
his scalp to the beginning of his shoulders. As wild as it looked from the surface, his hair had a certain sense of order to it. Each lock had a story to
tell, as did every crest and ridge of his face. The plaster bust of the french war hero was brought to life through intricate drill work. The usage of
chiaroscuro transformed a lifeless bust into a herculean warrior. The plaster, a bland combination of grey and white surprisingly conveyed an
overwhelming sense of life. The lackluster color scheme only highlighted the detail of bone structure when light contacted the surface of the work.
When viewed from the side, the viewer has in its sight the epitome of confidence and perserverence. However, a much different narrative is told when
the piece is rotated. The uncertainty in the hero's eyes becomes unmistakably prevalent. From the new angle, the victor appears to be slightly less
victorious. He is undoubtedly taken back by the sight in front of him. The war has been won, however our hero is horrified by what stands in front of
him.

everyone started to lie down, although I knew that many weren't going to the ground just for cover. I followed suit and laid there until we were
given further orders. The sound of our own artillery was reassuring, but not by much, as I knew we barely had half the number of big guns as the
French had. After what seemed like hours, the sound of artillery began to die down, and I thought we were finally able to make our first move. My

Often times, when a British infantryman had used a sword, it was usually a small cutlass that was usually used in the place of the bayonet, though
the cavalrymen had used a much longer and heavier sabre in order to fight on horseback. Soldiers on the American side had used axes and
tomahawks as well as the swords that they had looted from British soldiers, as the axes could do massive damage to someone within close quarters
with exceedingly high accuracy. Close quarter weapons were less preferred, as it had required face–to–face contact with the person of whom you are
killing, thus it left emotional scars on the soldiers whom had to fight with them, though it was accurate, its drawbacks led to less people using them.
(Unknown) Along with the longer swords, the cavalrymen and officers in both armies had used a very inaccurate flintlock pistol, which despite its
firing speed it was still inefficient as it had even lower accuracy than its musket counterpart. Nonetheless, the flintlock pistol pales in comparison to the

How Did The North Win The Civil War
Weapons of the Civil War: Why Did The North Win? Battles have been fought since the dawn of time. Weapons have gradually become more
technological and sophisticated each and every time. People learn from their mistakes, as did the Indians in the late 1700s, as well as the Confederate
troops from the Civil War. The Union was victorious in this war for freedom, and to this day, the north is more the heart of the country's economy.
Weapons have been around from the Neanderthals of the post–ice age, to the Taliban in Afghanistan. Rocks became knives, sticks became spears, and
bayonets became AK–47's. The technology from the French and Indian War was revolutionized and manufactured by the newly opened weaponry

The "cap and ball" had two barrels, which held nine .40 caliber rounds on the upper barrel, and a .63 caliber on the lower barrel, and came with the
option of either an eighteen or twenty gauge shot barrel. One model was even fitted with a full length barrel (Pikes 27–30). This greatly aided the
northern victory due to the enormous power it possessed over the confederate's figure eight's. Riffles were another major contribution to the war, as
far as weapons were concerned. The union forces had One of the most popular riffles was the Model 1861 Springfield Musket. The Springfield Musket
weighed 9.25 pounds, had a twenty–one inch socket bayonet, and fired a .58 caliber mine ball traveling 950 feet per second. Riffled Muskets, which
were also known as Enfields, were the second most popular riffles in the war. These Enfields, had a bore diameter of .557 inches, and weighed nine
pounds three ounces. They were accurate at 800 yards, and could travel up to 1,100 yards without any difficulty. During the course of the war,
400,000 Enfields were sold to the Union troops, whereas a mere 20,000 were purchased by the confederate army. Although this weapons wasn't as
popular as the Springfield, the Enfield still packed a powerful punch at 1,100 yards (Ripley 43). The Remington production factories, located in New

It was the
primary German infantry rifle in both world wars, and was known for its excellent
accuracy and range of 800 meters. For this reason it continued to be used with a scope as
a sniper rifle. The 98k had disadvantages like being bulky and heavy and slow rate of
fire, due to the bolt–action mechanism. It was also designed to be used with a bayonet.
The 98K rifle holds five rounds of 7.9mm in a clip. The Luger was the standard German
pistol. Developed by George Luger, it became the world's most widely used military
handgun. The Luger fired a 7–round clip of 9mm ammunition. It is estimated that 1.5
million Lugers were produced in Germany during the First World War.

The ice and snow feeling like tiny needles on my skin. As I looked around me at the other soldiers, all I saw were the faces of desolation and
despair. The wind whipped across my face chilling my bones, reminding me just how cold it was. This winter was one of the worst I'd ever seen. It
was relentless, and it showed no signs of stopping. Everyday that passed more people were falling sick to illnesses and starving. People were
dying by the tens and supplies weren't supposed to arrive until February. Washington is even struggling to keep his army united and strong. It's at
the point that he will let the men leave to come back in the spring. Just as I was about to stand up to clear my head, I heard the strong and
pronounced voice of Washington. "Gather around now," he hollered politely to us. Almost immediately the men rose to their feet and started
walking. "I have something to tell all of you," said Washington. "These are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine
patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands by it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman.
Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What
we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly: it is dearness only that gives everything its value. Heaven knows how to put a proper price upon its
goods; and it would be strange indeed if so celestial an article as freedom should not be highly rated. Britain, with an army to enforce her tyranny,
has declared that she has a right, but "to bind us in all cases whatsoever" and if being bound in that manner, is not slavery, then is there not such a

Hawaiian Monarchy Pros And Cons
The Hawaiian monarchy was overthrown by the Committee of Safety in 1893 after the McKinley Tariff Act and the Reciprocity Treaty. The Hawaiian
government lost a lot of independence and power from this by America. Businessman and sugar planters forced Queen Liliuokalani to renounce the
throne, and seized power from her while she wanted to draft a new constitution and increase Hawaiian's voting rights. People were split into different
groups, who were against annexation, which were most of the Hawaiians, and who favored annexation by the United States, such as the Hawaiian
League. The U.S. eventually agreed to annex Hawaii, while different opinions were brought up. However, the overthrow of the Hawaiian Monarchy
had a negative impact on the Hawaiian government because of Lorrin Thurston, the Annexation Club, and because Hawaii lost their traditions and
culture. Lorrin Thurston affected Hawaii in some negative ways during the overthrow. He was a lawyer and head of the reform party who went against

These bullets are sharp and can cut as the torment of the "grief and death". In the last stanza, the speaker is talking about the boy's teeth, who is
happy, as they are for eating an apple. However, these teeth are not weapons and he has no claws underneath his fingers. Also, God would not give
him "talons at heels" and "antlers" which mean that God would not help him. So, the speaker says here that this boy is not like animals which have
"talons" and "antlers" to help them kill their prey and in fighting with other animals. This stanza perhaps is showing that God is against wars and wars
are a man–made catastrophe. If God wanted the soldiers to be homicidal, He would give them claws, talons, or antlers. Let the boy try along this

In what ways does Frayn's writing make you feel that Keith is an unpleasant character in the novel?
Throughout the book it is clear that Keith is dominant over Stephen and many times has been portrayed by Frayn as an unpleasant character. The novel
depicts a story of Stephen and the mischief he gets up to with Keith. Stephen, however, is shown adverse to Keith's characteristics; this, in many ways,
puts Keith in a bad light showing him to be unpleasant. Frayn uses an ample amount of techniques for example imperatives and other characters to do
this.
One key part of Keith is his exploration with Stephen. Frayn shows the ironic discrepancy between both Stephen and Keith as they go through
adolescence throughout the novel, but manages to capture ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
His father, lacks humour and imagination; he repeatedly whistles "the same tune that never reaches its destination" he treats Keith with anger when
speaking to Keith "he snaps" this is passed down from father to son; with Keith too lacking in imagination and imitating his father's persona. Frayn
does this by drawing parallels between Mr Hayward and Keith, for instance, both Keith's room and Mr Hayward's garage is pristine with the rarely
used car and Keith's unplayed with toys "often in the boxes they came in". The idolisation Keith has for his father gives Keith a rather repulsive
characteristic from the strict regime that Keith has grown up with, which is distinctly different to the boys in his street and Stephen this difference
creates a barrier between Keith and the children in his neighbourhood making him socially awkward and unsure of how to act when others make
mistakes the only way he knows and recognises to be acceptable is his father's way. Keith's unknowing on how to act around other people could be the
reason why he acts unpleasant and obnoxious to others during the

Why Is Queen Lilli Unjustified

  • 1. Why Is Queen Lilli Unjustified Queen Lili`uokalani started her reign on January 29, 1891. In the beginning, a group called the Annexationists wanted to annex Hawaii to America. On July 4, 1894, Sanford Dole, who was apart of the Annexationist, declared himself president illegally. Lili`uokalani then was arrested for hidden weapons in her home and then on January 24, 1895. Queen Lili`uokalani officially gave up her throne on January 24,1895. The Overthrow of the Hawaiian Kingdom was unjustified because Queen Lili'oukalani was illegally overthrown and the Annexationist illegally created a government in Hawaii. The first reason why the overthrow of the Hawaiian Kingdom was unjustified is because Queen Lili'oukalani was illegally overthrown. Lili'oukalani had been overthrown ...

Having the two poems set in different times, contrasts how WorldWar 1 is presented both during and after. Bayonet Charge has many examples of similes to give vivid detail to the reader, helping them to understand life at war whereas 'Mametz Wood' is run on metaphors to describe the delicacy of the remains of soldiers after war In 'Mametz Wood, the metaphor 'the china plate of a shoulder blade' infers that the body piece which was found ...

This opposing contrast presents life for the soldiers at war, during and after the event but they both have one thing in common – the distress and horror behind it all. Mametz Wood suggests the end of the horror but suggests how the horror lives on because even now, there are still remains and bodies found in the most normal places saying it's something that will never be forgotten. It's the end of the story. But Bayonet Charge takes the audience through the terrifying experience of war and the uncertainty and shock, through the readers mind.

  • 3. All Quiet On The Western Front Historical Accuracy All Quiet on the Western Front is a fictional war story by Erich Maria Remarque that takes place in the First World War. Erich Maria Remarque was a German soldier in the First World War who suffered multiple injuries during his service. Erich Maria Remarque wrote All Quiet on the Western Front based on his experience from the First World War. The First World War is the first war to employ trench warfare, which was the digging of tunnels known as trenches to use as a defensive position on a battlefield, as a military strategy. The use of trenches in the First World War caused many casualties due to the fact that the trenches are good defensive encampments, and the use of trenches caused many stalemates that were very hard to break without losing... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... All Quiet on the Western Front mentions multiple weapons being used by the characters. The main characters have a rifle with a bayonet, which can be serrated or not serrated, on the end. The enemy would kill any captured Germans that they found with a serrated blade. German bayonets can be detached from the rifle, which the bayonet is attached to, and used as a sword or dagger. Paul BГ¤umer's dagger that he stabbed GГ©rard Duval was likely a bayonet that Paul BГ¤umer took off of its rifle. Early machine guns needed to be cooled down using water, and this fact is stated in the story. The first tanks were used in the First World War even though tanks were not mentioned in the story. Tanks often broke in the middle of and outside of battle. Gas shells were used in the story, and Paul BГ¤umer had to help a scared recruit put on his gas mask during one gas ...

Flower And The Bayonet The image taken by the French photographer Marc Riboud in 1967, entitled "The Ultimate Confrontation: The Flower and the Bayonet" (1967) is among the most renowned anti–war news photos and it is selected to be analyzed in this critical essay. The title directly points out the main conflict in this picture which may arouse viewers' interest and reflection but for further comprehension, more background information is needed. The girl in the picture with a chrysanthemum holding in her hands was a 17–year–old American high school student at that time whose name was Jane Rose Kasmir.

The Battle met the criteria of a just war using the principles of no means malum in se, proportionality/military necessity and distinction. By adapting the attack to these just war criteria, the ANZAC's were successful against the Turkish army and gained them the high ground. The first criteria, no means malum in se which is to not use weapons or methods of warfare which are considered 'evil' was adapted into the battle as no weapons which are considered 'evil' were used. The Battle of Lone Pine was trench warfare using the generic weapons of grenades, bayonets and rifles. The trenches were too narrow and cramped for use of any machine guns or heavy artillery. Chemical weapons including mustard gas were also too risky to use in the confined space. ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...

  • 6. How Did Soldiers Use Bayonet Swords used during the American Civil War (1861–1865) differed depending on what rank the soldier was and what type of combat the soldier was going to see. The swords differed in design, material, blade, and hilt. Most of the soldiers using swords of any sort were using bayonets made specifically for stabbing, attached at the front of their rifle, made from a solid material with minimal design, and not sharp anywhere but the tip. Highly ranked officers carried very decorated, gold and silver, swords a bit heavier than bayonets with a slight curve but were completely dull on one side, semi–sharp on the fighting edge, and very sharp and pointy towards the tip. Soldiers that were anticipated to do a lot of close combat were given curved swords made from a light material with some design but not nearly as much as an officer's sword. It was sharp and pointy, made to do severe damage. ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Only 1% of deaths recorded during the War were the result of a bayonet wound (Civil War Bayonet). Most soldiers used their bayonets as tools around the camp or just got rid of their bayonets all together so they had less gear to look after. The bayonet itself varied from where they were stationed, some got bayonets that were as short as a foot and others had a bayonet almost as long as their rifle. But most bayonets were sized from one–to–two feet in length and made from a sturdy metal material. It was similar to a large knife, it would just simply slide onto the end of the rifle (Civil War Bayonet). It was rarely used by most soldiers but there were some cases, such as the Battle of Getttysburg where Joshua Chamberlain, Union General, ordered his mean to use just bayonets and charge the enemy screaming (Council on Foreign ...

The weapon the bayonet was connected to was used purely for killing. The rifle has made extreme advances at the start of WW1, from a simple musket to a M1917 which could not only shoot a bullet but "United States "doughboys" [could] fire a grenade using M1917 rifle"(history–of–american–wars.com:World War 1 Guns). Weaponry will alway be apart of war, in WW1 it was seen the most because of the constant race to have stronger way of killing each other. It is sad terrible and should probably stop one day. Until then, keeping soldiers alive will have to be in the tactics used in war like the popular trench warfare made famous in WW1. German Trench warfare a popular tactic of WW1 it was somewhat safe to be in trenches but for every good thing about the trenches death surrounded them. "By the wars end, each side had dug atleast 12,000 miles of trenches"(pbs.org The Trenches: Symblol of the stalemate). The war could have been completely different if the soldiers didn 't put all the effort they did in building them.

This one simple gunshot was later known as "The shot heard round the world." No one knows who fired the shot but it began the Revolutionary War. One man contributed more to the American Revolution than anyone else. Without Friedrich Von Steuben as an important mentor at Valley Forge, the war would have had a completely different outcome.

To make sure no issues with the army's muskets occurred such as, accidental firing, or friendly fire incidents, the troops were told not to load their muskets and to only use their bayonets to fight (Moran 1). Many British soldiers were killed due to General Sir Henry Clinton and Lt. Colonel Johnston's poor planning and other British soldiers were captured. Wayne sent a message to Washington telling him the fort at Stony Point was in their possession. Without Steuben's training with the bayonets, the Continental Army wouldn't have achieved this victory. Steuben created a sanitation system that followed throughout history for nearly a century and a half. Before Steuben arrived nothing was sanitary or generally organized. Huts and tents were not organized, they let animals rot when they died, and there was no arrangement of camp layout. At the end of the day men went into whatever hut or tent they pleased without thinking of the consequences. If another man in the tent was ill, everyone in his surroundings would be affected with the illness if it was contagious. At one point while the army faced these excruciating conditions, about one in four soldiers was ill (Davidson 184). By creating a plan and organizing the huts and tents, illness decreased. The women also contributed to helping the sick and wounded. However, without Steuben organizing ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 11. compare the experience of the soldiers in Charge of The... compare the experience of the soldiers in Charge of The Light brigade and Bayonet Charge Bayonet charge is about a WW1 soldier who is running with his heavy rifle across a field under enemy fire. Then suddenly, time stops and the soldier questions why he is running towards bullets. Suddenly the soldier notices an innocent hare running across the field under gunfire, the hare gets caught up in the gunfire and dies. The poet ends the poem with the soldier instead of fighting for honour and dignity, he runs to survive. This poem shows what the soldiers were feeling when they were running towards the enemies hiding in trenches in WW1. It reflects the question because the soldier freezes to look back on what he is doing and why is he doing it... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... This, again, links to the question because it shows the soldier is terrified of the situation he is in since he is running directly at the enemy. Also, the alliteration of the letter C in "cold clockwork" is used for effect to suggest the soldier's feelings of fate. In COTLB, it also develops into the soldiers charging into the gunfire of the enemy however the soldiers are in a much worse situation. This is reinforced by the quote "Cannon to the right of them, Cannon to the left of them, Cannon in front of them" This quote shows that the soldiers are surrounded by the enemy and there is no escape, which shows there is little chance of survival. This links to the question and Bayonet Charge because the soldier is also charging at the enemy under fire however here, they are trapped. The repetition of the word "Cannon" describes the true horror of the situation and how scary war really is. It, again, links to Bayonet Charge because the soldier was petrified and frozen looking back at what he was doing which shows us that the reality of war is really scary. It then goes to say "Volley'd and thunder'd" this quote shows that the cannons were powerful and threatening. The verb describes the noises that the cannons made and since these are strong verbs it shows us that the cannons also are very powerful which we can ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 12. Gun Rights : The Symbols Of The Second Amendment The second amendment entitles the people to own or bear arms. Many people today believe that gun rights should be repealed or removed for the Bill of Rights, but I believe that this is one of our very first amendments and it is one of the most important ones, because it keeps the government from imposing tyranny or an oppressive government upon the people. The second amendment also give us the ability to protect ourselves without the government taking the right away from you. History is filled with stories of government overpowering people, and without the second amendment these problems will repeat themselves. The past couple of months this year believe that gun laws or rights are being violated, and many people are voting to repeal the second amendment because of these people hurting others with the right to own a gun. The symbolism behind the musket in the monument I am creating is that it was one of the major guns used during the revolutionary war. The second amendment is mostly about gun rights and allowing them in the states to the people, to protect themselves. The musket was used by many american soldiers, because it was light weight and shot a smaller bullet these were a favored gun to the continental soldiers. These muskets were the best at close range in the battle next to rifles. While the british army used a heavier musket called "Brown Bess" and once the french allied with america, america started receiving lighter continental muskets that were used in the ...

British soldiers were issued with the Lee–Enfield 303, while most Germans received a 7.92mm Mauser. Both of the rifles were highly durable and had good long range.

  • 15. Why Overthrow Of The Hawaiian Kingdom Was Unjustified? The Overthrow of the Hawaiian Kingdom was when Hawaii's monarchy was dethroned by the Committee of Safety on January 17, 1893. The Committee of Safety was a group of thirteen people led by Lorrin Thurston that caused the overthrow of Hawaii. Foreigners in Hawaii were overruling the native Hawaiians and the natives never had a chance to speak their opinions. Many foreigners came to Hawaii to start a new life or to share their religion with people, but a group of people named The Hawaiian League (which later is the Committee of Safety) which later caused the Overthrow in 1893. The Overthrow of the Hawaiian Kingdom was unjustified because Queen Lili'uokalani opposed the overthrow, the Committee of Public Safety, and the revolution was illegal. ...

Opposers say this because Queen Lili'uokalani was a sovereign and was planning to replace the Bayonet Constitution with a new constitution of her own ("Hawaii's Last Queen"). When the constitution she was trying to create was caught by the foreigners, they viewed this as an act of revolution. Ministers betrayed her to tell the Committee of Public Safety about the new constitution Queen Lili'uokalani made because they all thought that she was a dangerous person. However, this is completely fake, she was not a rebel and only created a new constitution because she wanted better rights for her people. Queen Lili'uokalani was trying to replace was the Bayonet Constitution with a constitution of her own because the it reduced the power of native Hawaiians and they couldn't vote because of it. By replacing this constitution, Hawaii's monarch's power will be restored. Also, according to "Spirit of Aloha" by Pat Pitzer, on the night of January 16, 1893, John L. Stevens brought troops off the U.S.S Boston to the palace to support the Committee of Safety without permission. The Committee of Safety were planning that night to overthrow the Queen, which is why John L. Stevens brought troops off the U.S.S Boston to support the Committee of Safety. What John L.

This is the main attack for which the 20th Maine regiment has been preparing for. During this clash, there are multiple waves that the regiment has to defend against. The director is trying to convey a point to the audience concerning the sheer numbers of the Confederate army by visually creating multiple wave attacks. The 20th Maine regiment is also a massive army especially with the extra help given delivered by, "... 120 three–year enlistees from the 2nd Maine Infantry were marched under guard into the regimental area of the 20th Maine. The 2nd Maine men were in a state of mutiny and refused to fight..." (Brann). For the production sake of the film, only six men could represent the historically accurate number of 120 men. In the film, Chamberlain talked to these men, saying, "Any of you fellas care to join us, any man who joins us now there will be no court–marshal" (Gettysburg). The director is trying to make it seem like this bit of help is substantially aiding the 20th regiment without having to cast the massive numbers of people.

The plaster, a bland combination of grey and white surprisingly conveyed an overwhelming sense of life.

Everyday that passed more people were falling sick to illnesses and starving. People were dying by the tens and supplies weren't supposed to arrive until February. Washington is even struggling to keep his army united and strong. It's at the point that he will let the men leave to come back in the spring. Just as I was about to stand up to clear my head, I heard the strong and pronounced voice of Washington. "Gather around now," he hollered politely to us. Almost immediately the men rose to their feet and started walking. "I have something to tell all of you," said Washington. "These are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands by it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly: it is dearness only that gives everything its value. Heaven knows how to put a proper price upon its goods; and it would be strange indeed if so celestial an article as freedom should not be highly rated. Britain, with an army to enforce her tyranny, has declared that she has a right, but "to bind us in all cases whatsoever" and if being bound in that manner, is not slavery, then is there not such a thing as slavery upon earth. Even the expression is impious; for so unlimited a power can belong only to God." I then realized Washington had just read Thomas Paine's The Crisis. I just stood still as it ...

  • 34. Hawaiian Monarchy Pros And Cons The Hawaiian monarchy was overthrown by the Committee of Safety in 1893 after the McKinley Tariff Act and the Reciprocity Treaty. The Hawaiian government lost a lot of independence and power from this by America. Businessman and sugar planters forced Queen Liliuokalani to renounce the throne, and seized power from her while she wanted to draft a new constitution and increase Hawaiian's voting rights. People were split into different groups, who were against annexation, which were most of the Hawaiians, and who favored annexation by the United States, such as the Hawaiian League. The U.S. eventually agreed to annex Hawaii, while different opinions were brought up. However, the overthrow of the Hawaiian Monarchy had a negative impact on the Hawaiian government because of Lorrin Thurston, the Annexation Club, and because Hawaii lost their traditions and culture. Lorrin Thurston affected Hawaii in some negative ways during the overthrow. He was a lawyer and head of the reform party who went against the monarchy and greatly supported U.S. annexation of Hawaii.

Hawaii became overpopulated with foreigners coming into Hawaii to work and live as a citizen (Kea, Monica).

World War 2 Technological Changes Essay Technology Changes from Civil War– World War II The technologic changes in weaponry were dramatic in the 80 years between the Civil War and World War II. In the Civil War the soldiers were fighting with rifles with bayonets. By the time World War II occurred, soldiers had semi –automatic rifles and assault rifles. Ironclad ships made their first appearance during the Civil War (Civil War Technology 7). In the beginning of the Civil War all ships were made of wood and canvas. As the war went on, industry developed ships that were clad in iron. The iron material made these ships stronger and harder to defeat. They still had sails and sat really low in the water. They had rotating guns so that they could fire in all directions. The first ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Submarines were also used in the Civil War. Civil War Technology cited that the first submarine was named after the man who created it, CSS H. L. Hyatt 2 Hunley (8–9). This submarine worked by using eight men sitting on a bench turning a propeller with a hand crank. The CSS H. L. Hunley made history by blowing up a naval mine and sinking the USS Housatonic on the Charleston Harbor. Afterwards, the CSS H. L. Hunley sank as well. Hot Air Balloons were used by both sides in the Civil War. Civil War Technology cited that they were used primarily to determine where the enemy was and how many soldiers were there (14).

These bullets are sharp and can cut as the torment of the "grief and death". In the last stanza, the speaker is talking about the boy's teeth, who is happy, as they are for eating an apple. However, these teeth are not weapons and he has no claws underneath his fingers. Also, God would not give him "talons at heels" and "antlers" which mean that God would not help him. So, the speaker says here that this boy is not like animals which have "talons" and "antlers" to help them kill their prey and in fighting with other animals. This stanza perhaps is showing that God is against wars and wars are a man–made catastrophe. If God wanted the soldiers to be homicidal, He would give them claws, talons, or antlers. Let the boy try along this bayoLet the boy try along this bayonet–blade Owen used, in this poem, an alliteration to add emphasis to the poem and the image it presents. The phrases like "bayonet–blade", "blind, blunt bullet" and "famishing for flesh" have alliterations of the letter "b" and "f" which create an effect on the ears. The letter "b" is pronounced harshly to emphasize the cruelty of these weapons which is used to kill. Also, the letter "f" is pronounced harshly, but it is used to emphasize the heartlessness and inhumanity of having such thoughts by the boy. These alliterations give greater significant in regard to the exact image. Also, there is a use of

  • 41. Does Fayn's Writing Make You Feel That Keith Is An... In what ways does Frayn's writing make you feel that Keith is an unpleasant character in the novel? Throughout the book it is clear that Keith is dominant over Stephen and many times has been portrayed by Frayn as an unpleasant character. The novel depicts a story of Stephen and the mischief he gets up to with Keith. Stephen, however, is shown adverse to Keith's characteristics; this, in many ways, puts Keith in a bad light showing him to be unpleasant. Frayn uses an ample amount of techniques for example imperatives and other characters to do this. One key part of Keith is his exploration with Stephen. Frayn shows the ironic discrepancy between both Stephen and Keith as they go through adolescence throughout the novel, but manages to capture ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... His father, lacks humour and imagination; he repeatedly whistles "the same tune that never reaches its destination" he treats Keith with anger when speaking to Keith "he snaps" this is passed down from father to son; with Keith too lacking in imagination and imitating his father's persona. Frayn does this by drawing parallels between Mr Hayward and Keith, for instance, both Keith's room and Mr Hayward's garage is pristine with the rarely used car and Keith's unplayed with toys "often in the boxes they came in". The idolisation Keith has for his father gives Keith a rather repulsive characteristic from the strict regime that Keith has grown up with, which is distinctly different to the boys in his street and Stephen this difference creates a barrier between Keith and the children in his neighbourhood making him socially awkward and unsure of how to act when others make mistakes the only way he knows and recognises to be acceptable is his father's way. Keith's unknowing on how to act around other people could be the reason why he acts unpleasant and obnoxious to others during the ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
