315-625-1530 is a number you can use to call me!!

My apologies, I thought I published this Sunday night. Please familiarize myself with the vocabulary associated with each war. If you think you know a term, fine. If not, look it up. I realize there is a lot here, and it is a heck of a lot easier to do this in person. Watching all of the videos will help with the terminology.

If you could, please send me a short comparison/contrast reaction about the differences between World War One and World War Two. Please send that to me by Monday, next week.
