Jacob trudged through the woods, listening to the crunch of the red-orange leaves under his hiking boots. Aside from occasional bird calls and the rustle of leaves
in the trees, it was the only sound he had heard for the last hour. He searched the
trees, hoping to find a familiar trail marking on one of them, but there was none in
sight. Jacob glanced up at the darkening sky and tried to dismiss his growing
apprehension. It was his first time in these woods, and even though he had a map, he
had forgotten his compass. To make matters worse, the sun would set in a couple of
hours and he had not bothered to pack a flashlight. Besides the map, all he had in his
knapsack was a bottle of water and a book. Jacob stopped to sit on a fallen tree. As
his hands shook with nervousness, he took out his map and tried once again to
pinpoint his location. Daylight was scarce and he didn't know if he'd ever see home
again.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
