Vollyball24-
I think that the outline you choose to organize your essay was very easy to understand and neat. Good thesis!
OUTLINE-BULLET POINTS:
• Thesis
• The draft was bad because you were forced into the army
• Many men dressed up like women so people would think they were crazy so they wouldn’t have to go into the war.
• It didn’t work, so they got forced into training.
• After their training, soldiers would be sent overseas to Vietnam to fight.
• Many American soldiers died because they didn’t know the land well, and the Viet-Cong also laid down trap like devices, planks of wood with metal stakes sticking up.
• This was dangerous and many American soldiers died from it.
• So many people had died in Vietnam that the U.S government had sent officials to force people to be in the army. Many loved ones were lost when they went out to war.
• THE BENEFIT- We had more troops to help us try to win the war.
• It would help us keep a stand in the war. (when the Viet-Cong surrendered but we really did lose the war part).
Pinkbabex5 and LovePinkx3 i think your outlines are both really good they had lots of detail in them. =P
THESIS: Elvis Presley is the sole starter of rock and roll.
I. He started the art form because of his musical details.
A: He became big for his "rock and roll" in the 50s and many people believe that the Beatles were the starters when in real life they came in the 60s.
B: He had the first rock sound, he often played multiple chords repeatedly in four four time, and that is the usual rock and roll sound for modern rock and classic.
II. Elvis is not the same as Johnny Cash
A: Johnny Cash is considered country, because of his bluesy guitar playing and voice, Elvis had more songs that would be at a faster pace, and wouldn't use his voice as smooth as Johnny's
B:The reason i put that is because when people think of Johnny or Elvis, they often associate each with one another, and that leads the thinker to believe that they are both country.
III.Elvis Inspired Jimmy Page greatly
A: in an interview with Jimmy, he said that he got a lot of his Blusiness from Elvis, and that he was an idol for his guitar playing.
B: the reason i bring this point up is so that you will see how greatly he inspired some of the greatest rock bands of America.
guitardude101, i thought that the fact about the men dressing up as women was kind of depressing, and that just made me feel sad for them. i know if i was alive then and got drafted, id do the same.
pinkbabex5 i never thought of fashion as of ending the war but when i think about it, it did have a lot to do with it.
lovepinkx3, you chose a hard situation to deal with, and i thought that thats cool that you are going to try and follow through.

Pinkbabex5: You did a great job with explaining your thoughts but I don't understand how the end of World War I has anything to do with women and fashion in the 1970s.
CubsmaNic100: Your information is about how the attack on Pearl Harbor happened is really good. I don't think writing “the attack on Pearl Harbor threw the U.S into the war” is not the correct term. I think it should be the attack on Pearl Harbor started the U.S involvement in World War II.

Outline
Topic: Coco Chanel's rise to fame
Thesis: Gabrielle Bonheur "Coco" Chanel rose to fame because she never gave up her dreams and believed in herself when no one else didn't. She persevered until she accomplished her dreams. Her influence was mainly from her like of men's suits and her sensitivity to the active lives of modern women.
1st Part: What made her famous
*IDEA--> Chanel became famous because of her elegant fabric and simplicity in designs. In fact, in 1923 she told the magazine "Harper's Bazaar" that "simplicity is the keynote of all true elegance". She always kept her designs simple and comfortable. She also had a hand in designing the 1920s dress the Flapper.
2nd part: Legendary Chanel No.5
*IDEA--> Even after retiring in WW2, Coco rose back to the top of the designer chain by creating the ever-famous "Chanel No.5" perfume. Chanel made millions and re-created her alpha designer status. Chanel No.5 is still a world-wide best selling perfume to this day.
3rd Part: World War II Hôtel Ritz Paris
*IDEA--> In 1939 at the beginning of WWII, Coco Chanel closed all her shops, deciding that it was not a time for fashion. During this time, she stayed at Hotel Ritz Paris and for more than 30 years, Chanel made this hotel her home, even during the Nazi occupation of Paris. During that time she was criticized for having an affair with Hans Gunther von Dincklage, a German officer and Nazi spy who arranged for her to remain in the hotel. She also maintained an apartment above her couture house at 31, rue Cambon and built Villa La Pausa in Roquebrune on the French Riviera.
