American soldier

1. The picture with the soldier sittinh by himself is the most powerful because it's really sad and obvious that he's going through some hard times. 2.The images work together to tell a story by conveying the theme that being in the militaryis a tough job and comes with depression alot of the time 3.The captions enhance the photograph by tellingthe story behind them 4. Ian Fisher leaves for Iraq in March 2009.  When he returned from Iraq, he got married. 5. The verbs are usually written in past tense F1. Two sentences F2. First sentence provides date and what is hapenning F3. Second sentence provides info on what is hapenning in the photo and other backround information F4. Information beyond the second sentence F5.
