World War II

Alright, we're learning about World War II in my history class and it's one of my favorite wars to study. So what I want you to do is write a story based during World War II. Make me feel like I'm actually there, give me dates, names, anything that I can see and be yes, this is World War II.

RULES:
~No erotica
~No bashing God
~No Gay/Lesbian stories
~Please put name in author's notes


***To all wondering if the theater matters, it doesn't. That's up to you. Just make sure it's pretty factual.

    Had an idea for this, but don't think I can make it work. Thus I regretfully withdraw.

    Any particular theatre?
    I was thinking of doing either the Finnish Front with Finnish PoV or the Italian Front with Irish PoV

    How much flexibility have we got with the facts?

      I'm pretty sure it doesn't matter either way, though I might do something with the Burma front. Either that or one of the many battles between China and Japan.

      You can add a second one, just put your name in the author's notes of both stories so I can give more people a chance at winning. I don't want to award a person twice, no offense, I just want to be sure each person has a chance. But yes you can add a second story, just put your name in both stories.
