During the American Civil War, the volunteer-soldiers on both sides of the conflict were typically motivated by one quite simple, but also quite powerful, reason: to defend their way of life. For both Northern and Southern volunteers, the war was certainly a complex and confusing thing. Yet in many cases the decision was made to lend support to their side for the sake of maintaining the "status quo" in their homes such as they had always known it to be.
Well, "He marched off to class like a soldier on a mission," is a metaphor. It just happens to be a simile too.Here's the thing: all similes are metaphors, but not all metaphors are similes.

The man who threw the puppy off the cliff was a Marine, not a soldier. He was dishonorably discharged and punished. The reason he did it is because he was just not a very good person.
Peter

His actions helped to spark-off the American Civil War.
