There are many reasons why I chose to become an

officer. The most important reason is the increased

pay that an officerreceives.

In addition, an officerhas a better love life than soldiers. The night life is

great in Columbus. However, it is also good in

Minneapolis. The lakes in Minneapolis make the

the city an enjoyable place in the summer. But the

Minneapolis winters are as harsh as those in

Alaska. They are building a pipeline across the

state of Alaska. The pipeline will carry oil. Ofcourse, if the pipeline breaks, the entire state will

become polluted. The pollution is really bad in the

Great Lakes. Something must be done about it.
