How do Jethro's views on war change during the course of the novel? What happens to bring about this change? Across five Aprils

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached, we can say the following.

Jethro's views on war change during the course of the novel in that when he is young, Jethro has a simple or "silly" image of what war is: soldiers, riffles, marches, but he cannot imagine the real pain and suffering of the battlefield.

After his father had a heart attack, he has to come of age quickly and see the world differently. Due to the fact that he is not fighting in the war -as their family members do- he hears terrible things that happen on the battlefield, and he suffers. That also makes him change and mature.

Many people he knows are dying in combat. And he has to wait for the news to know if their beloved ones are still alive or they just passed away.

American writer Irene Hunt is the author of the Civil War novel "Across Five April's," published in 1964.

hey there!

the reasoning behind university’s having students create prompts is to mainly get to know the person better. they want to know their interests, goals, personality,

it’s also a good way for the university to see the persons focuses in life. for example, if someone’s room is very organized and clean, usually all aspects of their life are the same.

so really, having people prompting to apply to a university is so the college can get more information about that person.

hope this you! if you need any more details, i’d be happy to

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
