He gained this by being the first American combatant to make it to the top of the castle walls and by recovering his unit’s colors for the injured James Longstreet. By the end of the Mexican-American War, he was reassigned to the 9th Infantry, and by 1849 he was promoted to first lieutenant. This U.S. victory was the only triumph that Pickett would ever know.

Having fled so far from Vietnam, I can no longer imagine what to say, or how I should address my prayers, or for that matter what promises I could possibly make to the long departed. My mother, on the other hand, lives in America the way she would in Vietnam. Every morning in my parents’ suburban home north of San Jose, with a pool shimmering in the backyard, my mother climbs a chair and piously lights a few joss sticks for the ancestral altar which sits on top of the living room's bookcase. Every morning she talks to ghosts. She mumbles solemn prayers to the spirits of our dead ancestors, and to the all-compassionate Buddha.
There is no glory, it is impossible that soldiers sacrificing themselves to attend the whole of war. Harrison despites in the novel that illustrate behavior, survival at any time, thoughts of the soldiers of others; make the reader consider deeply what the ideas the Harrison presents. There is no heroism in the war causing the soldiers have no stake to devote their life, even though they have no experiences to attack in the first bombarment. For axample, in chapter 2 the narrator sign ‘I can find nothing to appease my terror’.

Source 15 (people’s judgements of Haig) tells us of historian Sir Llewellyn Woodward’s opinion of Haig’s strategies, “Our high command had not advanced beyond the tactics of the Stone Age. They could not think of any other form of warfare, except to throw into battle large numbers of men, month after month.” This quote could be biased as it is not written by a witness nor is it a fact, however, you can cross-reference this with the view from Field Marshall Montgomery who was a chief for Britain’s army “Haig was unimaginative and dull.” Some share the view that Haig is the Butcher of the Somme because of his over optimistic attack and his unwillingness to change his out-of-date, useless tactics which were clearly causing the deaths and suffering of a large group of men.

He lacked in knowledge in wars and responsibility of succeeding Russia as his son and as a loyal subject. In addition, Peter try to convince his son to learn art of war and leading country as an essential to Alexis so that people will look upon. In a letter Peter state that “You have no inclination to learn the art of war, you do not apply yourself to it and consequently you will never learn it”. In rest of the sentence he referred his brother and king of France as an successful leader that their subjects look upon. This statement clearly shows that Alexis was in no interest
