Imagine you are one of the soldiers who witnesses the shooting described in "An Episode of War " by Stephen Crane. Write a paragraph (about 150 words) describing what you saw and how you felt. Use sensory details as you
write your narrative. hel

Sample

Your answer may include the following points:

descriptions of what you saw, smelled, heard, and felt as one of the soldiers

your reaction to the lieutenant’s sharp cry of pain

events that followed the lieutenant’s injury

the scene at the field hospital and its effect on you

Here’s an example:

I was about to take my regiment’s share of coffee, when suddenly I heard a sharp cry of pain. I looked up to see the lieutenant wincing in pain, holding his bloodied arm. He was hit by a sniper. I was stunned, but in a moment I regained my composure and rushed forward to help. He wouldn’t let us help him, so I followed him to the field hospital.

As the doctor examined him, I was dead sure that amputation was the only option the doctor had to save the lieutenant. That is how it is in the line of fire. A freak bullet takes your life or limb. I am a soldier, yet the tragedy and absurdity of war struck me as sharply as a bullet as I walked through the hospital tents filled with amputees, their eyes staring into their hopeless future.
