Using smart pointers in a struct or class?

Your code is fine, except for one little detail.

I would probably use a std::vector instead of a std:::unique_ptr, if you don't mind the std::vector being copied when you return the FileData.

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.
