HOW TO TELL ATRUE WAR STORY

 

            WAR MAY NOT SEEM REAL REAL TO EVERYBODY BECAUSE THE TRUE MEANING OF WAR LIES INSIDE THE EYES OF THE SOLDIERS. "HOW TO TELL A TRUE WAR STORY" BY TIM O'BRIEN SHOWS AN AUTHENTIC VALUE THAT ONLY A TRUE SOLDIER CAN CHERISH AND REMEMBER FOR THE REST OF HIS LIFE. AN INDIVIDUAL MUST EXPERINCE WAR TO UNDERSTAND IT. TO GENERALIZE WAR IS LIKE GENERALIZNG LIFE VERSUS DEATH."WAR IS HELL, BUT NOT HALF OF IT, BECAUSE WAR IS ALSO MYSTERY AND TERROR AND ADVENTURE AND COURAGE AND HOLINESS AND PITY AND DESPIAR AND LONGING AND LOVE. WAR MAKES YOU A MAN; WAR MAKES YOU DEAD".BUT TO SUM IT ALL UP, THE TRUTHS ARE CONTRADICTORY.
             WAR IS GROTESQUE BUT CAN ALSO BE BEAUTIFUL. THIS STAEMENT MEANS THAT YOU CAN LOOK AT WAR FROM TWO DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVES; ON ONE HAND, PEOPLE ARE DYING BECAUSE THEY CAN GET WOUNDED FROM THE TIP OF THIER TOES TO THE CORE OF THEIR BRAINS. ON THE OTHER HAND, WHEN YO STARE OUT AT TRACER ROUNDS UNWINDING THROUGH THE DARK THAT IS LIKE BRILLIANT RED RIBBONS. " YOU ADMIRE THE FLUID SYMMETRIES OF THE TROOPS ON THE MOVE, THE HARMONIES OF THE SOUND AND SHAPE NAD PROPORTION, THE GREAT SHEETS OF THE METAL-FIRE STREAMING DOWN FROM THE GUNSHIP, TEH ILLUMINATION ROUND, THE WHITE PHOSPOROUS, THE PURPLE ORANGE GLOW OF NAPALM, THE ROCKET'S RED GLARE.".
             WAR IS MYSTERY BECAUSE NOT EVERYBODY GETS TO EXPERINCE IT AND NOT STORIES GET TO BE TOLD. IT'S AN EVENT WHERE EVERY INCIDENT IS DIFFERENT FROM THE OTHER. BOB KILEY, THE PROTAGONIST, MENTIONED THAT HE WROTE TO CURT LEMON'S SISTER ABOUT WHAT THEY'VE BENN THROUGH WHEY THEY WERE IN THE VIETNAM WAR. HE FELD THAT HIS EXPERIENCE WAS BEYOND DISCRIPTION, BUT HE WROTE THAT LETTER. THAT MAGNIFICENT FEELING OF SHARING WAS INDEED WONDERFUL. THE ONLY WAY THIS STORY WAS TOLD WAS THAT SOMEONE, BOB KILEY, WAS ACTUALLY THERE.
             WAR IS TERROR. IT'S EVERY SOLDIER'S DREAM AND NIGHTMARE. WAR IS A DREAM BECAUSE THA INTENSE JOYFUL FEELING OF ATTAINING ACCOMPLISHMENTS, BADGES, MEDALS, AND RECOGNITIONS AFTER THE COMBAT IS OVER IS THRILLING, SURVIVAL FEEL LIKE AN EXTREME SENSATION AS WHEN YOU WIN A MILLION DOLLAR LOTTERY.
