The Sniper

 

 In the stories “Sniper” and Pat Tillman’s death, they both had a large connection. In both short stories the biggest connection is; the relationships with all the main characters family are torn apart from the wars. In “Sniper” his relationship with his brother was destroyed because they were fighting against each other. I think when your fighting against your brother it digs trenches between the two in reality and mentally. In the story of Pat Tellman’s death, when he leaves I think everyone is devastated that he is leaving and just thought of they might never see him again. Throughout the war I think the relationships between the family fades. In all I think the big connection is both the sniper and pat went to war there relationships with their families were destroyed.


Text-text

I chose a song called “hero of war” that I think connects to both of the stories. This song reminds me a lot of the story of pat Tillman’s the most. I think it connects to pat Tillman because this song expresses how much this man wants to serve his country and is willing to leave his family to serve his country. I think this connects to the “sniper” because they both are so willing to serve their country that they will leave their family and the sniper will even fight against his brother. The stories and the song I think have a huge connection between each other.
