    When the fighting began, Shaara illustrated the deeper aspects of war and soldier life by illuminating the readers on the personal lives of the otherwise hardhearted men. When light is shed on James Longstreet and Lewis Armistead’s arduous pasts, I began to see them as actual people rather than bloodthirsty soldiers. Longstreet had been thrown into battle after having just lost three of his children to fever, and the Confederate Armistead was faced with losing his best friend, Union general Winfield Scott Hancock, after already having lost his wife. Shaara took his readers by the hand and guided us through General Chamberlain’s struggle of duty as a soldier versus duty to family as he strived to serve the Union as well as protect his younger brother, Tom, without showing favoritism. The most impactful part of The Killer Angels, to me, was that the characters were developed as real people…

    Military theory spans centuries of conflict all across the world. As such, military theorists have written in a variety of military climates, varying from the absence of gun powder to the presence of nuclear weapons. However, some military theories are transcendent. Some elements of Sun Tzu and Clausewitz are eternally wise. While their similarities may become universal truths, their differences are equally worthy of study because, it is in the differences where choices are made. Sun Tzu and Clausewitz agreed that war is chaos, military action is a tool for diplomatic goals and, as such, the results of warfare are not final. Their differences lie in how they advocate for waging war. The style and preparations for war contrast. This is where…

    As I descended the staircase the Basement, I saw Aech lying on one of the room’s three coaches, which were arranged in a U-shape. His eyes were glued to the TV. Aech was currently watching Captain Power and the Soldiers of the Future, a Canadian-American television show from the late 1980’s. The TV show revolves around Captain Jonathan Power and a group of guerrilla fighter, called the Soldiers of the Future, as they work together to defeat the machine forces that dominate Earth. From his facial expression, I could infer that Aech was not watching this for entertainment. He looked extremely serious, as if he was scrutinizing the film. It was at that moment that I realized he trying to find a relation to the Jade Key. “The captain conceals the Jade Key.” Although Captain Power was certainly not canon, Aech was so desperate to find the key that he was studying aspects of 80’s pop culture that Halliday was not known to be a fan of. This gave me hope, for it signified that I was not the only gunter in the High Five that was clueless about the location of the second key.…
