The victims of 911 that were originally designated as heroes were the passengers of one of the planes that were believed to have fought with the terrorists in their plane and prevented them form causing heavy damage. Several movies have been made on what happened aboard that plane during 911. Over time, people have amalgamated the victims from that plane that were indeed heroes with the other victims and have started designating all victims as heroes.
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.
