Response 4, Part II(Tyler Welt)

I chose Tyler’s response because it was similar to mine in a few ways. These storms he mentions are the vehicles used to  describe the United States, and the Soviets. When he refers to the “red hue”, he is referring the the Soviet “storm”. The bridge functions as an area of constraint and idleness. The people on the bridge do not know which side to choose. Both storms look uninviting, and the only place that seems to still be home is right in the middle, not taking any sides. People on the bridge were in fear of what tiny action might bring their lives into war. The flashes that the boy is thankful for not seeing, are the flashes of the missiles that would begin the war. Tyler uses good vehicles in this response to demonstrate the terror that people must have felt back in that time.
