The Beginning
This is one of the 3rd grade classes at my school when i was a boy
Before the war I was an ordinary boy going through school being the best i can and hanging out with friends. When I was a teenager my friends and I would hear about WW1 and run down the streets of New York pretending that we were soldiers. My favorite role was the medic, ever since I could remember I loved helping people. And when I was school i would always go to the library and read the old medical books and try to learn all the sophisticated words. The only problem in my child hood was that my family wasn't the richest which meant that it would be hard to get a scholarship to collage. When in High school I would try out for every sport that i could and take all the classes on medicine so that i could to try to get ahead.
When I first saw this poster I knew that i could make a difference. Uncle Sam recruitment poster
When the first new's of WW2 came on the radio all I could think about was joining. I was already studying medicine and was working my way to become a doctor but something in my head told me to leave school and work my way up the ranks in the military.
