Transcript:
Private Charles "Chuck" Manley couldn't understand what was happening that fateful day at Gettysburg. Again and again he had fired his rifle, but he kept missing his target. Then, inside his head, he heard the voice of General Ulysses S. Grant. "Trust the Force, Chuck," it told him. "Trust the Force." Chuck closed his eyes and squeezed the trigger. When he opened his eyes again, he found that he'd shot one of his own men by mistake. Luckily, it was only a flesh wound. Anyway, about five minutes later, the Rebels retreated. Chuck smiled knowingly. Yes, the Force was indeed strong in Gettysburg that day.

Well, Mrs. Godfrey has given him good marks for comics…
It is actually hard task for teacher. How to encourage students creativity and at the same time make them learn subject?I guess she might read Nate’s work carefully and give some pointers, how better knowledge about civil war could make this story better.

Check your history! it’s not true that Grant was a drunk, that was only a rumor started after he passed up other officer’s and became a general

My guess:Star Wars-mixed with wars, it just equals Star Wars wars! Open fire, over! “Trust the force, Obi Wan Kanobi said” I can do this, I thought, as I ate my mint-chocolate-ice cream, as a hot girl passes by.
