2. After you completed the story, what were two things you learned about that you did not know before.
To be honest, I didn't know very much about World War 2 or the veterans, but I learned a lot from this story. I didn't know that there was a program that brought veterans to the memorial and I dint know that so many people died in each battle of the war.

Yes, I think this was a very moving piece.

It was written in first person.
5. Did the chronological format help the story in your opinion?
Yes, I think it helped it to flow as smoothly as it did.
6. How many different people did the writer quote in the story?
I think it was 11 or 12.
7. What was the thematic element the writer used throughout the story?
His writing was very thought provoking and emotional. You could feel all the emotions that these men felt.
8. How did the quotes help the story?
The quotes made the story more personal.
9. Was the story written in a very strict, quote-transition format?
I would say so, and i think that made it even better.
10. How is this story different than the hard news pieces we have written in the past?
I would say this story is a lot "fluffier" than the hard news stories we have read or written. It wasn't just about the facts and information, it gave you details that a hard piece may not.
