Not knowing the nature of the offense or the state in which it occurred a specific answer is not possible. In all states most juvenile adjudications (including minor in possession) remain confidential and are sealed when said person reaches the state's legal age of majority. In California, if you are convicted of an infraction for minor in possession, rather than a misdemeanor, it never makes it onto your "record" in the first place.
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.
