I want to talk about the part where __________________. I thought _____________________. What did you think?
The part that I thought was most interesting so far was _____________________________. I think _________________________________________. What did you think?
I want to talk about the part where the black soldiers first showed that they were becoming just as good soldiers as the white men on pages 20. I honestly think that they were just as good as them before, but nobody wanted to believe that. I still do not get why they had to train seperately even if they were in the military.
ReplyDeleteI agree I dont think they should be left out just because the white soldiers are complaining that blacks are not the same as us because of there color.
DeleteI read that section and I agree that the black soldiers were being treated like garbage.
DeleteI reread and i totally agree. I think that they were good in the army and I don't think it is okay for them to judge how good they are because of their color.
DeleteI want to talk more about when morris took all the ose black soldiers and took them to a fake parachute area to have them practice it. Then he got in trouble by some guy i don't remember his name.My thoughts about it where I think that it was stupid that he got in trouble for trying to make them soldiers feel like they where actually apart of the army. Pg20-21
ReplyDeleteIt doesnt make sense why they were getting in trouble
DeleteI reread that part.I agree that morris should not have got in trouble for making them feel like they were actually like a army member and les like a slave.
DeleteI reread and totally agree. I don't think it was right for him to do that to them.
DeleteI want to talk about the part where Morris and Gaither were talking about letting the african american soldiers have more exercise and freedom with their training and where Gaither told him a top secret . I think it was a bad decision for Gaither to tell morris. I found this information on page 22. What do you think.
ReplyDeleteI read that part and i dont know why he got in trouble. I dont understand it at all.
DeleteI want to talk about the part where the african americans got their right to serve. I thought it was good that the african americans get to serve in the military not like slaves what do you think page 18-19
ReplyDeleteI reread that section and I totally agree I think it is a good thing that anyone can have the right to serve in the army if they would like.
DeleteI agree, I thought that it was good for them to be able to serve in the military.
