I read the article about the man who had a watch a solider had gave him. The man was determined to give back the watch. "When the man didn't return from the mission, Schweikert assumed he had died." The watch belongs to Frank Cook who is actually living and well today. "When Schweickert got home from Vietnam, he suffered from nightmare and stuggled to adjust to life in the states." He didn't look at the watch for a long time. "The watch has aged over the years" meaning is wasn't as good as it used to be. "Cook says he's going to put the watch in a glass case." Through this article there has been many life lessons learned. The theme in this text is to search for something that you want to find and never give up because in the end if its going to make you feel better then why not!? Also I have learned that people will be very appreciative of you if you make them feel better. What this guy did not only make the other veteran very happy but he put closer on the part of the others soldiers life.
