If you are coming back from another View Controller (e.g. With pop in a navigation controller), your viewDidLoad is not called. Therefor your data will not be updated. If you want that to happen, you should implement the NSFetchedResultsControllerDelegate and set fetchedResultsController.
Delegate = self . It will update your table whenever a change occurs. There is a less elegant solution, to call your initFetchRequest method from viewWillAppear but I would recommend the first solution.
Hope this helps!
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.
