Propaganda


Dear : Andrew Harrison

        All over town, there are these posters that are being placed. They are everywhere! I've seen them on the way to the store and on the walls of a lot of buildings. They all advertise the ongoing war happening right now. I think they are being placed everywhere because not enough people are signing up for the war. They are even trying to promote war on the television and radio. Although I rarely listen to it because I do not have the chance, whenever I do, I hear about how honourable war is. I can not help but feel guilty when reading or hearing about the war because a lot of them ask why are you not in the war. I know I can not participate in the war because of my age, but in a short time of a year, I will be of age and I shall be able to enlist. I wish my birthday was sooner because all of my friends are going to enlist in the next month or two. I have heard rumors of some people being able to fake their documentation to get accepted and I might just try. I mean, if I am going there next year, why not get a head start? I'll write back if I get any results.
