Did Britain ever consider annexing Normandy after D-Day?

I’m posing this question half in jest, but also half seriously. The Norman Conquest in 1066 is something that I’ve heard is still a touchy subject today among more conservative Britons, and Britain has been an ancient enemy of France for centuries, even up until the beginning of the 20th century. So with all of the British attempts to control France, from the Hundred Years War up until George III finally removed his claim of being “King of France” from his title in 1800, it seems unlikely, but not necessarily absurd that there were some people in Britain after D-Day who would have seriously thought of keeping Normandy for Britain after the end of WWII. So was there actually any serious thought given to it by members of the British government, or the public at large?

Did Women in the military during World War 2 have ranks?

I know that women during the second world war did serve in the military on a limited scale (WACs). Their duties were limited to clerical work and, of course, espionage. But were they given ranks? Were there women privates? Corporals? Sergeants?

Did the rebellious 1960s related to the paranoia 1950s?

I think the rebellious 1960s with its beatniks, Beatles, anti-war protests and long hair was really a product of the 1950s, and late forties. Just when World War II was over. And the Cold War was starting with Russia, The young grew cynical with the nuclear weapons, first generation with tv, McCarthy's repressions and fifties "conformity", as a result of 1930s Depression and World War II. What do you think, people?

History help?

On Weds. I have to begin this in class except I want to go ahead with this assignment. I dont even know how to begin.
This is what it is:

TASK
Your task is to sit in the Oval Office, in the chair of President Truman. Now that Germany and Italy have surrendered and the War in Europe is over, your political and military advisors are urging you to end the War in the Pacific quickly by using the newly developed atomic bomb.

Weighing the costs of both an invasion of Japan and dropping the atomic bomb, you, America’s president, must decide what is ultimately the best decision for the United States and its future. Support that decision by writing a speech to the American people.

THE PROCESS

1. the reasons for the Presidents decision,
2. the predicted outcomes surrounding the only other option,
3. the immediate and long term impact the ultimate decision had upon Japan, the U.S. & the world.

I dont even know where to begin. Can someone break it down & help me?
