"The Battle of the Bulge, which lasted from December 16, 1944 to January 25, 1945, was the largest battle of World War II in which the United States participated (Toland). Over a million men fought for their lives, countries and families. Although many a soldier dreamed of the day they could return to their families, many of them did not make it home. At the conclusion of the battle there were 81,000 American casualties including 23,554 captured and 19,000 killed. The British suffered 1,400 casualties, with only 200 killed. Also, the greatest number of all, there were 100,000 German soldiers killed, wounded or captured (Cole)."

I am a graduate of the communications/journalism program at Shippensburg University with an emphasis in public relations. I have strong writing skills and I worked for a county newspaper last year. While in school, I was the President of a student-run public relations agency on campus. All of these things have truly helped me with my writing skills. When I was younger, my teachers told my parents to put me in advanced classes for writing.
