WWII Artifact


WWII was a long and horrid battle. In the novel "Articles of War" by Nick Arvin it describes the terror and fear of war in great detail. An important artifact in this novel is the M-1. The M-1 carbine was what most of the soldiers in WWII carry in battle and "Heck" the main character in the novel uses as well. So far in the novel it has referred to this gun many times and eventually in the story I think it will some how impact Heck. One way the gun might affect Heck is if he ends up killing someone it would be with the M-1.


This artifact doesn't change my opinion about the war, but it does make me think of how people shouldn't be using violence and have to kill each other over certain things. This makes me sad that many people died during war from one man shooting another fellow man with a gun. One gun can have a huge impact on things if a human takes control of it.
