Entry three
"The Ranger resupplying us with ammo was hit again, this time in the shoulder, but he kept feeding us ammo in the front. Then a round tore through his arm. He still kept feeding us ammo." This section from the book is meant to make the reader to want more. This is meant to put the reader in the middle of all the danger of a fire fight. Where people all around you are getting shot but they are still helping their allies to fight off the enemy. In this section they are in Somalia during the 90's. During this time Somalia is in the middle of a civil war. The US troops are sent in to capture Somalian warlord Abdid and his lieutenants. If they succeed in their capture the people of Somalia might have a safer and happier life. The section above showed that the troops did everything in there power to win. The Ranger who got shot more than three times was still helping his teammates by feeding them ammo. This showed how dedicated they were to their cause. These people are risking their own lives for the lives of many others. This just shows who they really are
