Character Development
Character Development
This is a piece that describes the growth in the character Perry from the book Fallen Angles
As Perry is waiting in the bush for
the Vietnamese solders that he is about to ambush he thought back for 1 second
and remembers the horrifying moment where his friend died by a land mine when
they were out on a patrol to look for Viet Congs. That moment is the reason he
is still in the war at that moment where he could be back in the US with a bad
knee.
Perry a former basketball player from
army just got drafted to go out to Vietnam to fight in the war. The doctor that
checked all of the solders before they went out to war knew that Perry had a
medical condition with his knee that he hurt while playing basketball but
didn’t have the report that they needed to let the solders stay in the USA. The
army officers thought that he was good to go because nothing was on his profile
yet that would let him stay in the USA. That was the start of the peak of the
development.
The last major part in the book was
when he got shot and got to go back to the USA. When the doctor treated him he
saw that he had a bad knee and should of never been in the war and all that
Perry did was smile.

Revised Conflict and Resolution
The conflict in the book Fallen Angles is that the Viet Cong's were attacking harmless villages and taking everything that had value to it and keeping it for themselves. When the USA came in to help the Viet Cong's ambushed them many different ways that the US couldn't remember. The US needed to find a way to help the innocent people from being attacked so they had to think of something fast.
The resolution is that the US would beat the the Viet Cong's at their own games so they started ambushing them. It started to work and the number of casualties went down a lot. The fighting ended when they signed a peace agreement in Paris, France.
