Field Trip to American Memorial Park
By: Ashley Welch

The sixth grade class went on a field trip to American Memorial Park. We first went to the museum there. We learned about World War II. We even had ranger Nancy take us around the museum and tell us about things that happened in the war. Like the story about the atomic bomb. I always thought that the atomic bomb was just a bomb with lots and lots of explosives, but no. I realized it was something different. Going to the museum made me smarter. It made me realize how much people on Saipan suffered from the war. I’m glad that I was able to go there.

And no man dies...

Well, what happened? How do all stories start? Most start along the lines of, “A long, long time ago”. However, I’m probably unique. Well, I got up.
