Rate the following essay on its writing, argument, and language skills:
I am Luke Bomberger and today I will attempt to convince you to participate in Seagoing Cowboys Program. I was around the age of 18 when I started and it was an incredible experience.I really hope that what I say today will influence you to join.

One reason why you should join is you get to help people. The Seagoing Cowboys take care of animals that are shipped overseas to other countries because during the war many people lost their animals. You see, when World War 2 ended many nations formed an organization called UNRRA who hired the Seagoing Cowboys to perform this task.

Another reason you should join is you get see many places and sometimes you get to explore them. I got to take a gondola ride in Venice,Italy. I also got to tour an excavated castle in Crete and I got to marvel at the Panama Canal which was an incredible experience.

The final reason I will use to convince you is it can be very fun. On the return trip we Seagoing Cowboys would play many games where the animals had been held. We played baseball,volleyball,and many other games.

I know that this is a big choice and that giving you a few reasons will not convince you right-off-the-bat but hopefully what I have said has planted seeds in your mind that will eventually grow and in time you will come around. If you are not entirely convinced that you should join go home and think hard about it because it is a huge decision but hopefully you will decide to join. It has been an honor to speak with you and goodbye.
