I don't know any military men who are alcoholics.... I really find it hard to believe a guy could go through boot camp drinking all the time. Besides they aren't allowed to drink while in boot camp. If you don't trust the boyfriend, why are you with him at all.
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.
