War-A Personal Response

War-a personal response

            This black and white photograph was taken to represent the solemn tone of the war. This war was the Cambodian War. This picture depicts three soldiers, all having guns. One of the soldiers was injured and the other soldier helps to bandage his wounds. The soldiers looked aggrieved as they helped to bandage their comrade’s injuries. However, their comrade lays unconscious and it is evident that the soldier had not long till he breathes his last air. Everything around them was debris. Buildings, trees, grass, homes-everything was destroyed. This shows how wars are terrible as they not only destroy, they take lives away too.

War brings destruction to the world as nothing good but bad comes out of wars. This soldiers has come to bring the war to a stop, but they were either untrained, their resources were depleted, or they were outnumbered by their enemy’s forces, in which the third was of a more possible reason to why the soldiers had come to their plight in the picture above.
            War has many disadvantages to the mankind. One of them is the death of human beings. The other disadvantages are that war destroys the beautiful homeland that once had been your home, and it further depletes a country’s resources at a more staggering speed, and this leads to humans having less resources to survive.

In conclusion, we should stop all wars and provide peace to every country so that lives will not be taken away and valuable resources wasted.
