You can use an image sprite to do what you want. They can only repeat along one axis, i.e. Repeat-x, but in your case that's all you need.
Also your image within the sprite must run the entire width, this is how the browser knows to tile it.
I think you have to put the sprite on it's own row in this case. This should work since your image is constrained vertically to a set height. At least that's what it looks like in the example.
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.
