Signing Off for the Last Time

In our last days of US History, we watched an informational movie titled "Thirteen Days", which was about the Cuban Missle Crisis between the USSR and the US. It illustrated that this was a time where there was no one to look up to for answers and that, that generation was the first to experience this type of crisis. But through perseverance, new ideas were made to allow this Crisis begin or end in War and the launching of Nuclear Missiles. It also showed how by having civilians be in charge over the military can bring a new perspective to crisis situations, and also inhibit shortcoming to arise. US History has taught me many things ranging from US History (obviously), sympathy and empathy, and how to correctly write and compose an essay with correct references. Thanks to Mrs. Lawson this would the first and only time I have ever enjoyed a History class.
