Mackenzie's autobiography project is about American Sniper by Chris Kyle. The book details Kyle's experiences as a Navy SEAL sniper during the Iraq War. One notable event discussed is when Kyle shot and killed an insurgent from over 1,800 feet away, which contributed to him becoming the most lethal sniper in U.S. history. Mackenzie learned from Kyle's experiences that serving in the military can be both scary and dangerous, but is worthwhile if one truly wants to serve their country.

Use of Irony in Oedipus Rex by Sophocles.
This document discusses the use of irony in Sophocles' play Oedipus Rex. It defines different types of irony: dramatic irony occurs when the audience knows something a character does not; verbal irony involves a character saying something untrue that they believe to be true; and situational irony involves outcomes that are opposite of what was expected. The document analyzes examples of each type of irony used in Oedipus Rex, such as Oedipus unknowingly fulfilling a prophecy through his own actions while believing he escaped his fate.

When they easily defeat the army from Athens, Zeus becomes angry and punishes the sword god by making him destroy his creation. The sword god poisons the original warriors and turns the students against each other until only a few remain, who he also poisons. A few warriors escape and flee far away, where they begin training new warriors, but the gods eventually locate and eliminate them as well to fully

YANKEE SCOUT -- KILLING OF GENERAL SEDGWICK
THE CARNAGE of the Battle of the Wilderness -- May 5-7, 1864 -- has ended, the guns of the contesting armies fallen silent, but GENERAL GRANT orders the advance towards SPOTTSYLVANIA COURT HOUSE -- his original planned objective. Now ....
AS THE ARMY OF THE POTOMAC advances south, it emerges from the Wilderness into an open area with scattered stands of oak and hickory, where the soldiers are widely exposed to intense fire from snipers posted in the heights of the trees round about.
ONE OF THESE REBEL SNIPERS keeps working away at the Union Army picket line, where soldiers like PVT. DREW are posted to cover the advancing YANKEE column. Suddenly the general commanding the VI Corps, GEN JOHN SEDGWICK, moves out towards the picket to reconnoiter the ground for placement of his artillery -- when he is hit by rebel sniper fire, and instantly falls from the mortal wound
YANKEE SCOUT -- Killing of General Sedgwick !!
In the days following the Battle of the Wilderness (May 5-8, 1864), the Union Army moved south out of the Wilderness of Spottslyvania – Spott’s Woods -- mirroring the movements of General Lee and his Army of Northern Virginia, as General Grant continued his pursuit.
Travelling little by night because of the thickets of underbrush, the Union forces moved south by road through the forests, with troops sent out skirmishing on either side, to guard the flanks of the advancing column. Private Calif Newton Drew, Pvt. Henry C. Denbo, and other scouts of the 6th Maine Infantry, were dispatched on this duty….
The Army of the Potomac eventually emerged into an area of sporadically-timbered farmland in the neighborhood of the Spottsylvania County Court House, Virginia, only to find that the rebel sharpshooters that had vigorously harassed them in the thick undergrowth of the Wilderness, had now moved up into the treetops, to positions which afforded them good vantage & many clear shots of the Union skirmishers. Nevertheless, the morning seems a routine one in war, until at the "crack" of a rifle, Union General John Sedgwick drops to the ground -- felled by a head-shot, -- and is dead.
PRIVATE DREW is the last man to speak to him alive ....

American Sniper by Mackenzie
- 2. My autobiography project is on American Sniper. The author is Chris Kyle with ghost writers Scott McEwen & Jim DeFelice. The main character is Chris. His personality is that he is very brave & strong; he won’t let anyone stop him from what he loves doing in the Navy. Some personality traits are: he is unquestionably confident, independent & loving towards his family.
- 3. One interesting event that happened in American Sniper is when Chris was at war. He was up in a building hiding; he always hid either on the top most floor or on the rooftop. While he was watching through his sniper, he saw an insurgent about 1,800 feet away… he shot & killed the insurgent. This is what made him the most lethal sniper in U.S. history.
- 4. “True, I was scared to death getting on the damn thing. But once the pilot took off & we were in the air, I was hooked. It was a tremendous adrenaline rush- you’re low & fast. It’s awesome. The momentum of the aircraft keeps you in place; you don’t even feel any wind. And hell- if you fall, you’ll never feel a thing.”
- 5. What I learned from Chris’s experiences is that going into a branch of military can be scary & beyond dangerous, but you have to want to serve for your country to do the job right. This has helped me because I want to go into the Air Force & by reading this book, I got every detail of what war is like from his perspective; he was always completely honest of what it was like & what you feel like when you’re back home.
- 6. I would definitely recommend this book. It’s a great book to anyone who wants to join the military or just loves what troops do for the country. The only negative part about this book is the course of language; but it is what makes the book so intense & powerful.
