Read James Lacey’s essay, “We Need Trained Soldiers, Not a Horde of Draftees. (Links to an external site.)”
After you finish the essay, make a list of his points and the number of the paragraph where you find the points.
Then offer your response. What do you think of his claims? Your answer will be a thesis statement.
After you have made your claim, offer a quote with analysis or a summary (his ideas in your words). Once you do that, give the in-text and bibliographic citation for the “incorporated” material.
Write your answer in a short paragraph (200 words).
