Suppose you are Chris. Write a letter to a friend and tell him how you decided joining the army in spite of the fact that your brother and sister need you more than you county.

Dear Sam ,
I have decided to join the US Army . I know my decision is sudden and perhaps many will feel not appropriate , given that my little sister and my brother need me the most .
The passing of our father at the Iraq war has traumatised my little sister . And my brother has begged me not to join the army lest I shall surfer the same fate as our father .
But I realise that duty to your country is far more important than duty to your family. How can a stay home when our country is at such a huge risk ? I love my family and want to be with them and support them , but I live my country too.
My father too , died , believing in this vision . And I too shall live by this .
I hope you will understand my reasons and support me and my family in my absence .
Your truly ,
Chris
