They won't check it for a phone. The first thing they will tell you.. why were you using it? Your phone is long gone... unless you have a iPhone you can track it yourself.
Or a tracking app on your phone but I'm sure you don't have it.
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.
