Tim O'Brien because of his own experience in the war as a soldier depicts the Vietnamese war perfectly in his novel “The Things They Carried”. He's depiction is very rare and exceptional, for its feel and emotion that it delivers. Throughout his novel he lists all the different objects each of the soldier carries that characterizes the characters specifically, like Kiowa carrying the New Testament and Jimmy Cross carrying Marthas letters. But Tim suggests that the things they carried were far more than the objects they held literally while humping. “The things they carried were largely determined by necessity, they carried ghosts, they carried all they could bear and then some, including a silent awe for terrible power of the things they carried”

Although one’s choices can be either detrimental or benign to their lives, they have no correlation with their true disposition.

A man known as brother, father, soldier, outlaw, avenger of the poor; a man known as Jesse James was born on September 5, 1847 in Kearney, Missouri and assassinated only miles away in St. Joseph, Missouri on April 3, 1882 (Jesse James, Umsystem.edu). He was as notorious as the president was famous, but even with hundreds hoping for the bounty on his head, James was able to evade officials and remain a mystery. This man “was literally a legend” (Stiles, prologue). His crimes’ profit adds up to an estimated amount of $200,000 (Jesse James Biography, Biography.com), which today could be over 3 million dollars. The assassination of Jesse James is justified because he was not the hero people thought him to be and had murdered many who stood

The kids did not want to go to arm wrestling, really they picked where they went, but if the dad was not so laid back and was serious like the other dad he could've said no we are going there.
