Now, what about joining general washington's army? draft a formal cover letter applying for a job in his regiment. you can be creative with the return address and employer's address. consider what kind of skills a good soldier for washington would need. remember, this was in the late 1800s. remember to use active voice in your sentences.

Dear Sir:

I wish to express my interest in becoming an Army Soldier for the United States Army. This is a great opportunity that I am glad I have the chance to take advantage of.

I have followed the description of each and every battle you have fought and I consider you a natural leader. I admire the way in which you organize, train, drill and discipline your companies and regiments. From your observations, readings, and conversations with professional officers, I learned the basics of battlefield tactics, as well as a good understanding of the problems of organization and logistics.

I love my motherland and I can even sacrifice my life for the sake of the country. I am rather an expert in multiple fields, I was taught how to guard frontiers and to take the necessary steps in natural disaster operations. I am prepared to do all sort of duties at different terrains. I am passionate about the military profession. I have the ability to follow orders and perform the tasks assigned to me. I understand that everywhere I go I will be representing the army even when on leave. I can work as a team and back up my fellow soldier but I have the ability to step up and take on the leadership role if the need arises.

I would consider it an honor to become a soldier and I am sure that I have what it takes to be one of the best in the military.

Sincerely,

Your Name and Last Name

Explanation:

Since someone already answered the body, I will do the return address.

General George Washington, when he was in the army, he lived at Cherry street, so this will be the address and employer's address.

I tried to make the dates as accurate as possible.

:)

just say it's your friend did it and you had no idea?
