Set #1 At home in Denver - Tell me which image #s from image #1 to image #?? #1, #5,#6
Set #2 At Basic Training - tell me which image #s from image #?? to image #??#16,#20,#21
Set #3 In Iraq - tell me which image #'s from image #?? to image #??#51,#58,#61
Set #4 Back in Denver - tell me which image #s from image#?? to image #??#72,#73,#74

c. How do the images work together to tell a story? It shows everything he had to go thorough just to be in the army, and the pictures leds up to that.
