Mr. Penuliar English Period 6

On A dim and dark night in 1859 Jack was talking to his childhood friend from the old neighborhood Jim. Jack was the older of the two of them, he has always been a year older.

They were living through rough time period; the civil war. You would never know what was going to happen at anytime things just happened. You would be extremely lucky to survive a single battle.

Jack and Jim have always been interested the army since they were little kids and they wanted to serve and protect their country. They both joined the Army in the August of 1860. Ever since then they have both made it their goal to protect one another and to make sure that both of them return home all in one piece.
Jack has always been overprotective, he thinks that Jim will not be able to handle things on his own. But on the other hand, Jim thinks that Jack is wrong, he is a tough guy so he can likely handle himself on his own.

Its the 4th of July and the soldiers are all celebrating because it is the only holiday dedicated to them besides Memorial Day. Then General Flubber comes and ruins the fun, he orders that the soldiers stop fooling around and that they should start the march immediately to get to Bull Run while they it was dark so they couldn't be seen by anybody but other soldiers. They would be prepared for the battle the very next morning.
The march was very humid, There were so far no casualties yet in the eight-hour march to The Battle Of Bull Run.

The Next morning all you can hear for miles and miles away are gunshots coming from all directions. The Confederate Army have taken the Battle of Bull run with only 700 wounded or missing. The Union Army have a total of 1,500 wounded or missing. They return to base camp frustrated that they did not win the battle Jim Blames jack.

Around 11:30 A.M, General Flubber awakes everybody and alerts them that they will be marching all the way to Gettysburg, where President Abraham Lincoln presented his famous speech: The Gettysburg Address. This time the march was much easier and there we no problems at all getting their, no fighting, no barbed wire to be looking out for as you travel, and nothing to even worry about. Once again that Morning, there was only cannon, mortar, and gun firing throughout that whole day showing that a battle was occurring there at Gettysburg. This was a very even war, the amount of casualties seemed just about even on both sides.

While Jack and Jim’s squadron was moving, one of the Confederate Sniper blasted a shot directly into Jims shoulder when neither of them were paying any attention. Jack immediately moved Jim to safety, then took out the Confederate soldiers around the Sniper and called for a backup team. The backup team took out the sniper, they were all so relieved that he was gone. Jack then went to check on Jim He was not there anymore...

Jack, without thinking about what he is doing ran and fled to the base camp to see if his life long friend was there. Jim wasn't in the tent, so the next place he could be is at the medical facility. Once Jack enters it he asks the doctor if she has seen his friend Jim, she says that he was transferred to a city hospital for better care. He then rushes to the national railroad and gets a ride home to see his friend. It was a long ride home, but once he got there back to Pennsylvania he drove his Prototype Lamborghini Aventador to the hospital. Jack sprinted as fast as he could to Jim's station. He knew his station from the doctor that he talked with to find out where Jim was. As soon as Jack arrived, Jim noticed that he had something to say to Jack, to apologize for not realizing that Jack only had good intentions when he tried to only look out for him so he didn't get hurt in the consistent battles.

Jack politely asked the doctor helping Jim if he will be okay and survive this severe injury. The patient doctor replied yes, he will be okay and survive, both of you will be able to live a life of protecting and serving your country once again.
