Sandwich Blitz Unit 3 Essay

For this assignment I chose the piece of World War I propaganda that reads “Beat back the Hun with Liberty Bonds” across a large body of water,which is specified as being the Atlantic, with a bloody and beady-eyed German soldier looming at the edge of the water. The German soldier is represented as quite shadowy in appearance with the only color on him bring his bright green eyes and the blood on the weapon in his hands. The weapon seems to be some sort of gun with a knife attached to the end. This representation of a German soldier, to those that have never seen a German soldier before, instills a great deal of fear and resentment towards the soldier. If this was the first information I had seen about what a German soldier was like I would be scared due to the

On June 6, 1944 the largest amphibious assault in history took place. On the morning of the Invasion of Normandy, beaches in the area of Cotentin, France, were bombarded with over 5,000 tons of bombs, destroying German defenses and de-mining many areas. Following the bombardment over 100,000 soldiers swam ashore, and 11,700 paratroopers were dropped to secure Normandy Beach. After two months of battle, Allied troops marched into Normandy on August 24th, 1944. The Invasion of Normandy not only was the turning point of the World War II, but also directly led to the liberation of Western Europe from the Nazi regime.

     In the first phase of World War II in Europe, Germany sought to avoid a long war. Germany's strategy was to defeat its opponents in a series of short campaigns. Germany quickly overran much of Europe and was victorious for more than two years by relying on a new military tactic called the "Blitzkrieg" (lightning war). Blitzkrieg tactics required the concentration of offensive weapons (such as tanks, planes, and artillery) along a narrow front. These forces would drive a breach in enemy defenses, permitting armored tank divisions to penetrate rapidly and roam freely behind enemy lines, causing shock and

‘The “Blitz Spirit” was a myth. People did not come together during the war and it was a very hard time for ordinary Londoners.’ Do you agree?

The field visit to Burger Middle School was very informative. We learned from the principal that Burger Middle School is ethnically diverse, and had a high percentage of the student body in poverty. Despite the student’s disadvantages the school performs well academically compared to other schools in the state. One of the main reasons for their academic success is the students are given tangible resources to aid in their success. The Principal told us one of the ways the Middle School produces so much success is that the school demanded students perform well to get good grades, 80% of student grades are based on test while 20% of their grades is based on teacher’s assignments like homework. The purpose of this grading style is to set high expectations

During World War II propaganda was ubiquitous. It consisted of a wide range of carriers including leaflets, radio, television, and most importantly posters. Posters were used based on their appeal: they were colorful, creative, concise, and mentally stimulating. Posters often portrayed the artist's views on the war. They demonstrated the artist concern for the war, their hopes for the war, and reflected the way enemies were envisioned. Posters also show a nations political status: they reflect a nations allies and enemies, how the nation saw itself, and its greatest hopes and fears of the war.

On October 25, 1983, the President of the United States of America, Ronald Reagan, along with the United States Military, organized a mission known as Operation Urgent Fury. Their mission was to stop a Cuban inspired coupe and also to rescue stranded American students on the island of Grenada. Grenada, a small Caribbean island in the lesser Antilles is well known for their spices, their tropical climate, and being the smallest independent country in the Western Hemisphere, was about to face the United State’s in one of the shortest wars of the twentieth century. This was also the United State’s most recent war after their failure in the Vietnam War. The mission in Grenada took a total of four days to complete, resulting in the deaths of nineteen American soldiers, forty-five Grenadians, and twenty-four Cubans. Although the operation was short and the casualties were small compared to previous conflicts with the United States, the impact it left on the tiny country of Grenada, as well as the rest of the Caribbean was quite large, strangling the spread of communism in the backdoor of the United States. The successful invasion of Grenada eventually lead to the small island no longer being under Communist rule, and once again having their own prime minister. This then strengthened America’s influence of foreign governments, creating a democratic government in Grenada.

In Otto Dix’s “Shock Troops Advance Under Gas”, Dix presents the brutality of war for everyone to see. From the barbed wire snagging a troop’s arm to the gas masks, this work illustrates true horror. Dix’s illustration of war helps display that war truly is not something to write home about with pride. Thus, I present the argument that war is not something to be patriotic over, and it is not something we should be thanking the troops for. They are brave individuals, but the duties they perform are not – they are the product of cowardly nations. The purpose of this paper is to convey my personal feelings towards this work, war and how it is not the answer, and tying in my visit to the McNay Art Museum back to aspects of war.

According to my three day diet analysis it seems like my eating habits are poor. Not necessarily that I am consuming too many bad foods but I am not getting the all around nutrients that I need on a daily basis. Sometimes not eating enough. Or ot finding time to eat at all is a big issue in this. Due to my job and the lack of time I have at home it is hard for me to get the nutrients I need on a daily basis. With the target that is shown of six oz. of grains two and a half cups of vegetables, two cups of fruits, two cups of dairy and five and a half oz. of protein foods I fell short in most of the areas that were targeted for me. My biggest two areas of consumption was refined grains and protein.

The Second World War began in September of 1939 and was between the Allies and the Axis. It began with Germany’s unprovoked attack and conquest of Poland, and involved Britain and France from the beginning. Its origins lay in German resentment at the terms of the Treaty of Versailles (1919), the economic crisis of 1929-30, which favored the rise to power of Fascist dictators, the failure of the League of Nations to gain international acceptance for disarmament, and the policy of imperialism adopted by Germany, Italy and Japan as a means of acquiring raw materials and markets. As a part of the Treaty of Versailles, Germany had to accept full responsibility for the First World War, which then led up to the outbreak of the Second. The
