Answer 2

How the Battle of Midway turned the tide of the war in the Pacific. How through the better use of intelligence and tatics bythe US Navy was able to destroy a signifigant portion of the Japanese strike force.
The first American bombing of the home islands of Japan, with B 25 medium bombers launched from the deck of an aircraft carrier. How the Japanese reacted and what this very small attack on Japan in the first year of the war did for the moral of the American people.
The role of the French resistance and how communication was carried out between England and the resistance members.
Just some ideas, hope they help.

Answer 3

well...there is quite a story about a group of men...from the Airborne Division of the Army. These men had built quite a relationship w/ eachother in the most dyer of times. There is a book based upon their struggles and triumps throughout the war. The book is called BAND of BROTHERS. It is written by Stephen Ambrose. HBO also did a TV mini-series of this book as well. It is amazing. I am a chick mind you, and this has brought me to tears. I'd read it if I were you.....(it's about Easy Company) really I dig it.

I would do the Kamikaze thing. I had a friend who trained to be a Kamikaze but did not get a chance to fly before the war ended. I asked him how he could have done that. He told me that I would never understand. He said you have to have been born in Japan and that culture. True I do not understand
