Quick Write

Quickwrite was what would i do with 1 million dollars. I would save money for college, buy a new truck, jetski, new snowboard, Fathead of Mike Ditka, Mike Ditka's suits, going to Vegas with 50 G's and having a wild time. Maybe buy some jerseys. I dont even know, it would be too crazy

Where Men Win Glory

Where Men Win Glory by Jon Krakauer is a well-written book about the death of Pat Tillman and the research on the cases of lies on Pats death. Tillman, a former NFL star joined the Army Rangers along side his brother, Kevin. The two brothers joined the Rangers after the 9/11 attacks. They felt it was their American duty to fight for country and what they stand for. Pat joining the military gave President Bush an advantage on promoting military services. He used Pat as an American icon. Tillman and his brother were deployed only a few months after Pat married his high school sweetheart. It was a tough choice for the two brothers, a choice that they would soon regret. Pat was an outstanding defensive back in the NFL and Kevin was a minor league baseball player. Pat had more of a promising career, but what was keeping them from joining was their family and friends. After long discussion the two joined. Pat Tillman was killed by friendly fire on April 22^nd, 2004. The devastating blow to the Tillman family was soon to be another American icon using Tillman. Bush used Pat as an American hero.  Tillman did not want to be an American icon; he wanted to be an everyday soldier. When the family was notified of his death, they were lied to. And when they figured out there were loose ends that did not meet with the information, they were lied to again. The government covered up their corrupt mistake. Pat Tillman died for the wrong reason he didn’t deserve to die. The orders of Tillman’s killers were to fire among the hills Tillman and a few men were in. Krakauer went in depth with his research he found, trying to prove to the reader of the corrupt place we live. If our government can’t be trusted, who can be? Krakauer’s book is a well written story that I would highly suggest to anyone.
