Citizen Soldier

We all want our rights, but they must be balanced by our responsibilities. This
quote has a very strong message. As American's, we have a duty to respond in a
time of need. Not only should we go to war if we are called for, we should have
pride in our nation at all times. Many American's don't realize how lucky we
are. In America there are so many possibilities. A person born to a poor
family can go from rags to riches. Most of us don't have to worry about getting
a meal, or having a place to live. People in other countries deal with the
simple things that we regret everyday. To have all our rights as American's we
have certain responsibilities to keep these rights possible.
In the filmBrave Rifles, the bravery of the GI's is inspiring. Several examples
were given where the soldiers didn't have a chance but they would hold off the
German army all by themselves to buy their fellow soldiers some time. It is
just awesome that they were able to do this. Many of them probably had families
back home, but they put this aside and died for a greater cause. Our freedom.
These soldiers helped make America what it is today. They stood for what
America stands for. Opportunity Freedom, and Wealth. So many people die each
year trying to come to the United States from Mexico and Cuba. People complain
