==In this book some things are related to me like in the book so far that I read a girl asked Adam if he smokes and he said sometimes. This relates to me like sometimes kids come up to me and ask some questions like how do you think you did on the test and stuff like that and sometimes I don't have answer or don't want to answer. And Adam is wanting to join the military. ==

My picture is a picture about Adam's paper that he has to get signed to join the marines. Adam is seventeen years old and you have to be eighteen to be able sign it on your own so Adam has to go ask his Grandpa to sign it. His Grandpa said no at first but his dad and his grandpa were in the war so his grandpa signed it and then Adam is on his way to boot camp now. 



Nice picture Joe!!! I like how the signature is "Grandpa"!!!!! Its a really good picture. Matt

Adam graduates from boot camp and gets a seventy-two hour break to see his mom and stuff before he has report back. Adam at camp was having fun but it was tough for him because the main guys were tough on them. Adam went to go see his mom and his mom was mad at Adams grandpa for signing him up for marines. Adam cheered up his mom and told her everything was going to be ok. Adam invited his friend named Ben over also to see Adams mom.

Joe this is a good re-cap on the last few chapters of the book. It explains a lot about what Adam is going through like going back to his house and other things on his break.

Adam returned back from his seventy-two hour break. I liked the part when Adam got to go on the date with that girl who seemed very nice and they are on their way to go attack the Japanese. The girl that went on the date with Adam was a guy named Andy his cousins friend. They are just about to go attack and Adam was kept very busy he had to load all the trucks and all the things they needed to be loaded and I cant wait to see what happens next.

2. Do you think that Adam will start not liking the war because he is afraid?

<span style="color: rgb(255,0,255);">3. Will Adam start getting homesick?

4. How do you think the book has been so far?

Thomas Blaubach 6/5/09 I thougt he might of gotten some how hurt but not killed. I thougt that he was going to get angry at the war because of his fears. I was almost positive that he was going to be homesick the day he walked into the camp. I know I would. I thought that this is NOT a fifth grade book and it was not challenging.
