Number Of Missions Colonel Cathcart
1,308 words
The name of the novel I read is Catch- 22 by
Joseph Heller. This novels uniqueness makes it
hard to classify but I would classify it as an
anti-war novel. The main theme of the novel is one
of hope and freedom from the barbaric grasp of
war. Heller uses World War II as an almost
invisible framework in which he places a number of
vaguely related stories presented in no particular
chronological order, although the final narrative
does tie them all together. Catch- 22 was written

It was a hot, humid Hawaiian night, and we could
see the lights shining along the beach at the

like an eternity. We were on a 32 hour mission,

Day By Day Ethnic Cleansing
2,121 words
I. Introduction The bombing of Kosovo by NATO
forces may finally come to an end. While the
excuses for bombing the troubled region have been
challenged, for the most part the world concurs
that the atrocities gong on in that nation
warranted international action. In any event, the
bombing did start and it continues, despite the
accidental hits on pedestrian villages and
buildings which were not targets in the first
place. They have been explained away as
unavoidable during such a mission. Casual...

Soviet Union was desperately behind the United
States in the arms race. Soviet missiles were only
powerful enough to be launched against Europe but
