Dispatches

For my outside reading book I am reading Dispatches by Michael Herr, which is about a soldiers experience in the Vietnam. The book feels like I am watching a movie and you really feel like your there. Mr. Karpiak also showed me some maps and diagrams that give me more of an idea of the setting. I even watched one of my dads war shows so I have a really good image of whats going on.

The main character has been through several firefights by now and they are described in the book to look just like the ones on tv. So far the book is pretty interesting even though I barely ever have time to read, so its nice to sometimes get to read at the beginning of Dr. D's classes.

  1. Great post allen, I have read that book and its really good. Just remember that Dr. D wants two "well developed" paragraphs for out blogs. But other than that great job.
