Yes. Cadet Command requires us to conduct a formal event (Military Ball) and enter our teams in competitive events. Unfortunately, neither the US Army or the school system provides us any money to carry-out this requirement.
That is why we have fundraisers. Participation in our fund raisers is voluntary and has no bearing on your grade. However, if you do participate in the fund raiser, and make your sales goal, your entry into the Military Ball is free.
You may even get your date admitted free. That could save you $15 - $30. More.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
