Student Writing: Dwana Taylor, "Most Impressive at the D-Day Museum"


(Here is more student writing. This is an essay by Dwana Taylor, a student at SVDP-ALC, about what impressed her most on our school field trip to the National World War ll, D-Day Museum, in New Orleans a few weeks ago. In the photo Dwana is receiving an academic award from Sr. Kathleen.

Most Impressed by the National World War ll/D-Day Museum
By Dwana Taylor
I was most impressed with the museum because it explains what our history was all about. The museum shows what happened and how it happened. It also shows the things we didn't know before.
It's amazing how big the U-Boats really are. I also liked the short movies. They showed how it really went. We learned about the women and how they labored while our men were fighting in the service. It was wonderful how the soldiers have it all together. It's amazing.
I would love to go back to the museum. It was a moment back in history that will never be forgotten. All our kids will find out how it was once in history.
I thank God and St. Vincent de Paul -ALC for letting us be a part of this. I've learned a lot.
