Page 17: Pathos Activity
General Eisenhower starts to appeal ethos by letting these soldiers know that they are about to go into the battle which will probably end the war that they have been fighting in for the past several months. He makes them feel that all the hard work that they have been putting into this war is finally going to pay off. Then he tells them that the whole world will be watching them making them feel a sense of pride and honor. He ends by saying that he has full confidence in the soldiers courage, devotion to duty, and skill in battle. I think that this is where he applies ethos the most; in this part he seems like a proud father sending his sons off to war. This probably made all of the soldiers who were listening to him feel a sense of love and care from General Eisenhower which attacked them emotionally.
