Interesting question! If you really need to have a mix of authentication, you could try having transport set as one authentication type, and message as the other. I have no idea if this would work in practice, but it seems reasonable given that you can configure them separately :).
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.
