American Soldier Slide Show and Captions

1.
    A. The mot powerful photo I think is number 61, because the backlight against the Humvee and the soldiers on the side make an almost religious look of an others normal photo. It makes the soldiers look almost like some religious symbol, like a Angel or something.

    B.
Set 1: 1-9
Set 2: 10-30
Set 3: 51-71
Set 4: 73-82

Set 3, "In Iraq", was the most powerful because it depicted real situations with real people and they were jarring and mind boggling.

    C. With the captions, it tells the story of a man, Ian Fisher, who was deployed to Iraq, returned, and got married to his girlfriend.


3.
    A. The verbs are usually written in present tense, because it is as if Ian is talking.

    B. The captions provide a short narrative that complements the photo by filling a gap between then and now in the photo.

    A.
    #73: Robert falls asleep on his girlfriends shoulder as they wit for the roadblock to cease. Fo over 14 days, the Army had quarantined the city of Chicago in anticipation of the MEV-1 virus outbreak.

    #70: Daryl and Cynthia Jones wait anxiously at the New York International Airport for their plane. They booked it so that they could flee before New York was quarantined like Chicago, but unfortunately, they were to late.

    #61:J Garcia and Ty Longview, along with the rest of Alpha squad, wait anxiously for a sign of their buddies. However, at that exact moment, a wormhole had appeared, causing a flash of light, and rendering their friends missing in what later would be known as the Baghdad Incident. This is the only known photo of the incident.
